项目介绍
The MPhil/PhD in Environmental Economics programme offers the chance to undertake a substantial piece of research which makes an original contribution to the field of environmental economics and is worthy of publication.
Students are first registered on the MPhil, and will need to meet certain requirements to be upgraded to PhD student status. The programme culminates with an examination/viva in which your work is scrutinised by two experts in the area of research in which you have specialised.
Over the last two decades, the tools of economic analysis have become indispensable in analysing environmental problems and providing the basis for developing sustainable policy solutions. With rising employment opportunities in this field, student demand has also grown for doctoral courses offering rigorous, state-of-the-art training in environmental, natural resource and climate change economics. The MPhil/PhD Programme in Environmental Economics responds to this increased demand and builds on growing research at LSE in environmental, resource and climate change economics, and other related subjects. In particular, the Department of Geography and Environment currently has the largest group of full-time academic environmental economists in any UK university, and one of the largest internationally. Importantly, the Department enjoys close links with the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment and the ESRC Centre for Climate Change Economics and Policy.
The MPhil/PhD Environmental Economics aims to:
- provide advanced knowledge of the principles and conceptual foundations of environmental economics
- equip you with the analytical tools and methodological understanding needed to develop original research in the field
- expose you to the most recent developments and debates in environmental and natural resource economics
- prepare you for careers in research and academia, international organisations, the private/consultancy sector, NGOs, or governmental institutions
Teaching and learning in 2021
LSE is committed to offering you the best possible teaching and learning experience within the constraints of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Our expectation for the 2021-22 academic year is that all LSE students will be in London and studying on campus, where we will provide flexible teaching and learning which blends both in-person and online elements. This flexible approach has been informed by our student and academic community and builds upon the innovations and improvements we have put in place over the past year. If, due to events outside of our reasonable control, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, we have to make any changes to the delivery of the programme in the 2021/22 academic year, we will provide as much notice as is reasonably practicable by updating this page and sending an email to all offer holders/students.
For more information about LSE’s teaching plans for 2021and our Coronavirus FAQs for prospective students please visit our website.
As well as taking your time to look through the sections below, we also encourage you to take a look at our FAQs, which cover a range of frequently asked questions, including on the application process and funding.
