SUMMARY:Careers: Professional Branding
DESCRIPTION:This program is for all students (except MPP who will have this program in their AFE 1 class). It is also part of the JUMP START series for first-year students. \nTo clearly differentiate your value and what you bring to the table\, you need to do more than have a good reputation. You need to have an outstanding personal brand. Unlike your reputation\, your personal brand is much more intentional. It is how you want people to see you. It’s about visibility and the values that you outwardly represent. \nJoin Andrea Garrido and Cheryl Egan to learn more about this important topic while on the journey from student to professional. \nRSVP here.

SUMMARY:Introducing a New Inland Design Flood Elevation Dataset for NJADAPT
DESCRIPTION:On July 17\, 2023\, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) adopted its Inland Flood Protection Rule which\, among other actions\, establishes a new Design Flood Elevation (DFE) standard for specific types of new construction and redevelopment. The new DFE is 3 feet above the elevation of the 1% Chance Annual Flood for New Jersey (which is also known as the 100-year flood) or\, where NJDEP flood mapping is available\, 2 feet above NJDEP’s flood hazard area design flood elevation\, if that results in a DFE higher than FEMA’s 1% flood plus 3 feet. \nIn consultation with the NJDEP\, the NJ Climate Change Resource Center at Rutgers University prepared a new data layer for non-regulatory planning purposes consistent with the new 2023 DFE for inclusion in its NJADAPT suite of data visualization and mapping tools. The new data layer provides a crucial understanding of where Design Flood Elevations will change for new construction and redevelopment and can support local efforts to safeguard critical facilities and community assets. \nIt is important to note that the new data layer is meant to be used as a non-regulatory planning tool for reference only and should not be relied upon for site-specific flood impact analyses\, permitting\, or other legal or regulatory purposes. The accuracy of this dataset is limited by the data and methods available to create it. This dataset is not based on survey-quality data and must not be used in replacement of survey data.\nJoin us for an overview of the new data layer. The new data layer will be posted on the NJADAPT website immediately after the event. \nPanelists\nNJ Climate Change Resource Center:\nJeanne Herb\nLucas Marxen\nJonathan DeLura\nPritpal Bamhrah\nMarjorie Kaplan\nNJ Department of Environmental Protection:\nKunal Patel \nVirtual Event \nRegister here: https://go.rutgers.edu/NJADAPT24

SUMMARY:Implications of Robotics for Public Policy
DESCRIPTION:Online presentation by Prof. Clint Andrews \nInnovations in robotics are now present in many aspects of human endeavour\, from robotic vacuum cleaners to autonomous battlefield drone swarms. Alongside the intended effects of these innovations are some emerging\, unintended adverse consequences. Legal and political processes exist in part to prevent and mitigate such harms. This presentation offers a systematic analysis of the emerging routes by which applications of embodied artificial intelligence—robotics—elicit public policy responses. It develops a typology that classifies robotics applications according to how they interact with individual humans\, large-scale human populations\, and specific physical settings; and whether the robots operate alone\, in swarms\, or in integrated cyberenvironments. Each case interacts with public policymaking processes in different ways\, spanning tort liability law\, regulatory codes and standards\, and policies for assessing and managing risk. Clear roles emerge for voluntary standards\, international collaboration among governance bodies\, professionals cross-trained in robotics and public policy\, and institutions that effectively anticipate emerging problems. \nRegister Here: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/415611

SUMMARY:15-Minute Neighborhoods
DESCRIPTION:15 Minute Neighborhoods: A Pathway to Creating Healthier\, More Just\, Resilient & Sustainable Communities in New Jersey \nThe 15-minute neighborhood concept gained visibility as the global pandemic demonstrated that local access to basic life needs is critically important. In addition to being an important contribution to New Jersey’s efforts to achieve its goals of reducing pollution that causes climate change\, 15-minute neighborhoods provide residents with easy access to parks\, schools\, gathering places\, social services\, places to buy healthy fresh food\, and\, in some cases\, public transit\, within a comfortable walk or bike ride. \nNear-term\, multi-billion-dollar investments in infrastructure\, a revolution in transportation technologies not seen in a century\, the recalibration of relationships between people and places brought about by the pandemic\, and converging policies related to energy\, health\, climate\, transportation\, and environmental justice provide New Jersey with an unprecedented opportunity to rethink and adjust how we design and build communities. \nJoin Jon Carnegie\, Executive Director of the Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center at Rutgers University\, for a summary of a two-year study designed to investigate how a comprehensive\, multi-goal planning and policy framework can be used to achieve carbon-neutral transportation choices that simultaneously support healthy\, just\, and resilient communities for all New Jersey residents. \nPRESENTATION\nJon Carnegie\, Executive Director\, Alan M.
