12 May, 04 PM - 18 May, 11 AM

The purpose of our visit will be to teach a class. Please find a description of the class below. The political implications of climate change and the management of environmental resources will be two of the most important issues for students and scholars of international relations in the 21st century. This unique course focuses on teaching students about the principles of causal inference and applying them to the politics of environmental change, management, and conservation. Specifically, the course will focus on teaching students how to conduct research and evaluate theories related to the political implications of climate change, the governance of the commons and competition over natural resources. Students will receive training in how to design research and collect and manage data. They will then have the opportunity to experience field research first-hand by spending a week at the Reserve. The goal of the course is to train students in how to collect, analyze, produce and present independent research related to the political implications of climate change and the management of common pool resources.
