Climate change is one of the most pressing issues of the 21st century due to its multi-sectoral, global dimension with impacts on all areas of public policy, from economic policy to health policy, development policy and social policy. This applied, introductory and wide-ranging module will provide students with a background in climate change issues from a multidisciplinary perspective. Students will be introduced to climate change science and policy, international climate negotiations and finance, energy policy, environmental policy, business sustainability, and research and analysis in energy and climate policy. The module will also equip students with multidisciplinary methodological approaches for undertaking policy-relevant analysis in the climate change field. The module assignment will provide students with the opportunity to undertake a small piece of research on a topic of their choice to apply what they have learned. There are no pre-requisites for the module and the module is designed for those new or relatively new to the field. Students that already have a strong background in the field are welcome but the module is primarily aimed at those new or relatively new to the field.
