MAS Climate Science and Policy

The Master of Advanced Studies program in Climate Science and Policy responds to an international need for people working in topics affected by the world's changing oceans and climate to combine the scientific knowledge of the Earth's climate system with an understanding of the political, legal, and economic challenges associated with applying scientific knowledge in particular governmental and social contexts.

The program's interdisciplinary curriculum is designed to prepare practitioners to make wise and realistic decisions about the management of climate impacts. Crossing a variety of fields in Earth sciences, the program invites students with professional backgrounds in the private and public sectors as well as non-government organizations (NGO's).

The program is most appropriate for professionals with work experience in:

Managers in CleanTech and related industries from all regions of the world
Practicing ocean and climate and natural scientists
Educators
Science policy analysts and advocates
Communications specialists
Journalists
