The Water: Systems, Science and Society (WSSS) program at Tufts University is a certificate program that augments graduate students' degree programs by providing the interdisciplinary perspectives and tools necessary to manage water-related problems around the world.

On May 1, 2010, WSSS will host a symposium on Tufts' Medford campus to highlight interdisciplinary water-related research in the New England area.

The symposium will foster conversations between students, researchers and practitioners from various disciplines on current water-related challenges. The symposium seeks to help attendees learn of approaches and research outside their area of specialty.

We will assemble a symposium volume including presentation abstracts, relevant publications, and a synopsis of conference proceedings.
