TISED
Description
TISED mobilizes knowledge to educate and influence public policy around sustainability working with McGill University's engineers, architects, and planners The Trottier Institute for Sustainability in Engineering and Design (TISED) is an institute at McGill University in the Faculty of Engineering. We promote bold and green ideas through education, outreach, and research, where we aim to connect our institution with the public for a greater understanding and appreciation of sustainability issues in our society.
We aim to advance public policy in the area of sustainable engineering and design, informing and educating students, decision-makers and the public about sustainability issues. By focusing the attention of stakeholders on the relevance of sustainable engineering and design to our lives and promoting informed discussion, we strive to provide leadership in the area of sustainability, particularly in sustainable infrastructure and urban development, renewable energy and energy efficiency, and sustainable industrial processes and manufacturing.
