Environmental and Energy Policy—PhD
"Part of why I love Michigan Tech is because I have a family here. My friends are my family and they are from all over the world. You can feel the love and community here and that is significant." Learn more about Mayra on Humans of Tech
The PhD program in Environmental and Energy Policy provides opportunities for conducting interdisciplinary research in support of sustainable and equitable development. Students' research contribute to environmental goals such as facilitating the transition to sustainable energy systems, effectively managing the world's scarce water and other natural resources and protecting the ecosystem services upon which we all depend. The opportunities for research exist at many scales, from projects involving local watersheds and urban recycling programs, to global supply chains and international treaties.
More specifically, the doctoral degree program trains students to integrate multidisciplinary knowledge, interdisciplinary tools and approaches into research that supports societal decisions involving environmental and energy policy goals and programs. Coursework exposes students to multidisciplinary approaches: sociology, geography, anthropology, political science, law, history, ecological economics, sustainability science, and ecology—all framed within the context of policy analysis and sustainable development.
Program Flyer
Funding and Research
Students in the PhD program can receive up to three years of funding via assistantships that cover the costs of tuition and provide a stipend. Students are actively involved in a wide array of research projects on topics such as energy transitions , household resource consumption , water resources governance , and food justice. Program faculty have expertise across issues of energy systems, forest resources, food sovereignty, among other environmental issues, particularly the social, legal, and political contexts influencing resource governance and access.
"I did my PhD in Environmental and Energy Policy (EEP) and am currently a postdoctoral fellow at the School of Politics and International Relations, University College Dublin. My doctoral research focused on sustainable energy transitions in Mexico and the United States. The project I am working on now is involves developing a framework for achieving environmental sustainable development Goals in Ireland. The interdisciplinary training I received during my doctoral education has been immensely helpful to me for exploring and adapting to new areas of research easily. I found the EEP program very versatile; it helped me look at the big global picture of environmental and energy issues of our time by exploring the interconnected local problems. Also, the courses are writing and reading intensive, which is excellent training to build up a significant publication record. Finally, the faculty members take an interest in helping students find their path even long after they graduate. I was the first student to enroll in the new EEP PhD program, and I am so glad that I chose the program." Aparajita Banerjee, EEP PhD graduate
Career Pathways
The doctoral degree program prepares students to conduct research in support of environmental energy and environmental policy making, implementation, and enforcement. Potential areas of employment include universities, government agencies, industry and consulting firms, and non-profit organizations.
Universities
The academic path makes most sense for graduates who seek to join an interdisciplinary department or research center focused on environmental or energy policy. A potential step along this path is a postdoctoral research position focused in an area of expertise.
The public sector recognizes the need for researchers and environmental managers with broad interdisciplinary training in policy processes and the social or natural sciences. For example, federal regulatory agencies and international environmental organizations often require professionals capable of conducting and assessing research in areas relevant to environmental and energy policy. State agencies, such as those responsible for managing environmental quality and the use of natural resources, are also potential employers.
Industry and Consulting Firms
Private-sector employment opportunities are typically in policy-related positions of consulting firms and industry trade groups. Industrial firms often require professionals capable of conducting and evaluating research and participating in regulatory hearings, policy-related conferences, and public meetings. Consulting firms, which work with large companies on a project basis, also need professionals with the same skillset.
Nonprofit Organizations
Nonprofit organizations often employ specialists in environmental and energy policy. In their role as lobbyists, watchdog organizations, think tanks, and public education organizations, nonprofits often mediate between large questions of public policy and the environmental concerns of everyday citizens.
Progressing Through the Program
To be considered for the PhD program in Environmental and Energy Policy, a prospective student must:
- hold a MS degree in a field related to social sciences, public policy, or the environment, and
- have completed at least one microeconomics course, one statistics course, and one course in environmental science, and
- have a commitment from a faculty advisor who has agreed to mentor the applicant.
Once admitted to the PhD program, a student is expected to meet the following requirements:
- Complete 30 credits of coursework. Plan your curriculum .
- Identify a research advisory committee chair (an advisor) by the end of the second semester in residence. Together with the committee chair, students construct an advisory committee including at least one faculty member from outside the Department.
- Pass a written and oral qualifying examination. Following the completion of all coursework, students complete their qualifying examination to demonstrate competency in three selected subfields within environmental and energy policy and within the subject area of their dissertation. Qualifying exams are usually scheduled early in the third year of study in the PhD; however, the examination can be held sooner for an advanced student.
- Pass an oral and written research proposal examination before proceeding to dissertation research; students are expected to prepare a written research proposal, present it in a public forum, and defend it in a meeting with their advisory committee.
- Conduct significant research supporting some aspect of a societal or organizational choice related to an environmental or energy policy/program and write and defend a dissertation as a final product.
Degree Requirements
To complete a doctoral degree, students must complete the following milestones:
- Complete all coursework and research credits (see credit requirements below)
- Pass Qualifying Examination
- Pass Research Proposal Examination
- Prepare and Submit Approved Dissertation
- Pass Final Oral Defense
The minimum credit requirements are as follows:
Total Credit Requirements Degrees | Credits |
MS-PhD (minimum) | 30 Credits |
BS-PhD (minimum) | 60 Credits |
Individual programs may have higher standards and students are expected to know their program's requirements. See the Doctor of Philosophy Requirements website for more information about PhD milestones and related timelines.

The Michigan State University doctoral program in Education Policy prepares students to conduct research on current and enduring issues, and to connect with policymakers and educational professionals. The program was created by faculty members from multiple disciplines who shared a vision: that policy should be created with stakeholders through research that takes into account the real needs of teachers, administrators, students, families, and communities.
The Spartan difference
The Education Policy Ph.D. program at MSU is ranked in the nation’s top-10 and housed in one of the top schools of education. Students work closely with faculty who are leaders in their fields of expertise, and take classes in departments across the university that meet their interests.

Center for IPE student spotlight: Amani Abuelenain, University of Michigan School of Public Health
The Center for Interprofessional Education (C-IPE) works with undergraduate, graduate and professional students from all ten health science schools across the University of Michigan. Get to know the remarkable students who are learning to work in interprofessional teams while earning their Michigan degree.
Amani Abuelenain (she/her) is earning a M.P.H. in Health Management and Policy from the University of Michigan School of Public Health. She recently completed a summer internship with the Center for IPE, where she was able to develop her passion for multidisciplinary teamwork and gain experience in developing curriculum, operational work and relationship building. Learn how Amani’s experience is helping her grow her skills in health administration.
What drew you to your field of study?
During the semester that COVID-19 shut down universities, I was in a public health class where I was introduced to the fundamentals of population level health and the professor held my attention by teaching us information as if they were stories. Throughout the class, she continued to remind us that “We know public health is working when no one knows what it is” and COVID-19 taught me that lesson rather quickly. Those years emphasized the importance of prevention work, especially in relation to addressing health disparities. This was a space where I could see myself contributing to work that would directly impact my community.
Why did you decide to attend the University of Michigan?
The most fundamental reason that attracted me to attending the University of Michigan was for the welcoming network I would gain. Every person that I had connected with prior to attending the school provided me with a great deal of guidance and encouragement.
Please describe your involvement in the Center for IPE .
I recently completed a summer administrative internship for the C-IPE and have had the privilege of contributing to several projects. The projects have enabled me to refine my skills in several areas including developing curriculum, operational work and relationship building. The breadth of work confirmed my initial excitement for the chance to work for such a center. My passion for multidisciplinary teamwork within public health aligned perfectly with the mission of the C-IPE and I have been able to develop my experience in relation to interprofessional education and teamwork.
Why is interprofessional education important to you?
I have experience in several sectors where I have been able to engage in interdisciplinary work and develop my passion for cohesive efforts and collaboration. While every team I have been a part of has been instrumental in shaping my personal and professional skills, there was a consistent gap that became evident to me. While many teams were working well together and attempting to comprehensively address solutions from a variety of backgrounds, it was clear that there failed to be a prioritization of training for navigating interdisciplinary spaces. It is a point that was also evident to me through my education on health systems. Therefore, by encouraging the implementation of interprofessional education, individuals can adopt the interprofessional skills necessary to produce effective teamwork and fundamental changes in the health care system.
How have you grown since becoming involved with the Center for IPE?
My time at the Center for IPE has taught me how to better understand the responses and behaviors of individuals, especially during moments of high stress. Through the tools implemented by the team, I have been learning how to identify when individuals are exhibiting behaviors that indicate they are experiencing stressful moments and how to become a source of support and compassion during such times. These tools continue to shape how I am developing my approach to such situations. Furthermore, the opportunity I have had to contribute to a number of projects has enabled me to professionally develop in several areas.
What do you want your fellow students to know about IPE?
I want students to know that there is a space for everyone in IPE. Certain individuals may wonder where they can fit in a space that is traditionally clinical-centered. However, the intention of IPE is to join the forces of all areas of expertise, ranging from public health and social work to medicine and nursing. It is a space where I found a need for the voices of future health administrators and where we can learn to foster better relationships with those enacting the clinical work. Therefore, I encourage everyone to identify how they can contribute to such endeavors as all efforts are vital in promoting effective teamwork and improvement of population level health outcomes.
Who or what has inspired you on your educational journey?
First and foremost, my educational journey has been inspired by my family. They have provided me with the support, encouragement and guidance that has continued to empower me to pursue a career in public health. My community is another fundamental motivation for my fierce belief and championing the importance of prevention and public health. Within my community, there is a sense of mistrust in the health system and the presence of health disparities. Therefore, I continue to pursue public health with the hope of acting as a bridge between my community and the resources that can help them to achieve improved health outcomes and build trust.
What is your ultimate career goal after graduation?
My ultimate career goal is to advance within health administration, where I can continue to champion the improvement of interprofessional teamwork and implement everything I have learned from my time at C-IPE. I am hopeful that I will be able to fundamentally impact the landscape of the health system to improve coordination. I am open to different types of positions that I will take on during my journey, but I hope to continue to contribute to work that directly aligns with my personal mission and benefits my community.
What do you like to do for fun outside of school?
I enjoy being outside going biking or on a walk. I enjoy spending time with my family, friends and two cats.
What is your favorite spot on campus or place in Ann Arbor?
My favorite spot on campus is the Arb. It is beautiful and provides a scenic view if you choose to walk through it. While I was always close to it during my first year at SPH, my first time walking through was with the C-IPE team where we saw the peonies.
