As part of the Cornell China Center's student career series this spring, this virtual career panel showcases three recent Cornell alumni pursuing diverse career paths to construct a more sustainable future for the world. They share the identity of international students coming from China, while devoting themselves to sustainability in the fields of public policy, energy transition consulting, and city planning. As international students, how have they utilized their international experiences and multicultural strengths to empower their sustainability careers?  How do they address the challenges and differences posed in different contexts and ecosystems in the United States and their home country?
