MPA-ESP Summer 2025 Final Briefing

The Master of Public Administration in Environmental Science and Policy invites you to attend the Summer 2025 Final Workshop Briefings. During the Final Briefings, students will present their findings as a part of ENVP U9229 The Workshop in Applied Earth Systems Management I.

In the summer semester, the Workshop emphasizes management issues. Students enroll in small, faculty-advised project teams. Each Workshop faculty member selects a piece of proposed, but not yet enacted, state, federal, or local environmental law (or a U.N. resolution), and students are asked to develop a plan for implementing and managing the new program. In the summer semester, the Workshop groups write reports explaining the environmental science aspects of the issue that the legislation addresses and the management solutions that the legislation would put into place. In the fall semester, the Workshop completes the operational plan for implementing the program.
