To all economics PhD applicants, we would like to draw your attention to the PhD in Sustainable Development at Columbia University. The PhD is for economists and scientists interested in issues related to the environment, climate change, energy, development, poverty, health, transport, inequality, labor, political economy, and public policy more generally. With an inclusion of the natural sciences and/or engineering, the program is designed to provide a deep understanding of the interaction between natural and social systems.
Pre-doc job announcement! @HarvardSalata is hiring fellows to work with Anna Russo, Wolfram Schlenker, @ctaylor463, and myself on environmental economics! Application review will begin on 10/31 and continue on a rolling basis. Please apply and share! #jobDetails=2011529_5341" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sjobs.brassring.com/TGnewUI/Search…
