Education

Finding acceptable and sustainable solutions to problems with environmental pollution, natural resource management, and climate change requires a thorough understanding of economic principles as well as the ability to communicate with other social sciences and the natural sciences. In our courses we teach BSc, MSc, and PhD students the economic theories and concepts necessary to understand economic drivers of pollution and overexploitation, such as market failures and government failure, as well as the quantitative analysis skills to develop and assess possible solutions to those problems from an economic perspective.
