School of Natural Resources and Extension
The joint Ph.D. program in natural resources and sustainability prepares future leaders as academic researchers, agency professionals and analysts of nongovernmental organizations and communities for careers at the frontiers of the science of sustainability and natural resources management.
Exploring and understanding natural resource management systems require a well-defined skill set and a clear understanding of how specific problems are linked to broader cultural, ecological and geopolitical contexts. Thus, the study of natural resources and sustainability encompasses a spectrum of topics. The Ph.D. builds on the existing strengths of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment and School of Management faculty members to educate students in specific areas while training them to be conversant in the broader range of relevant topic areas.
The program objectives and its curriculum center around three thematic areas of study:
- resource economics,
- resource policy and sustainability science, and
- forest and agricultural sciences.
