Jointly run by the Nicholas School and Sanford, Duke’s Ph.D. in Environmental Policy trains scholars to bridge Earth-system science, economics, and law. Candidates craft carbon-pricing models for coastal resilience, evaluate equity in renewable-energy subsidies, and lead citizen juries on climate adaptation.
