It will teach students the scientific principles that guide sustainable management practices for water, minerals, forests, policy, and wildlife management. Students will discover environmental policies from around the world, practical approaches to resource dilemmas, techniques for environmental dispute resolution, and coverage of hot topics such as tradable emissions permits, solar and wind energy, recycling policies, and global environmental initiatives. Labs will give students a chance to engage with real and simulated data sets for forestry, fish, shellfish, deer, and coal management scenarios.
