Graduate-level introduction to forest sustainability from an applied interdisciplinary research and environmental problem-solving perspective. The course meets weekly, with each week covering a different aspect of forest science (e.g., forest ecohydrology) or management (e.g. wildfire policy). The material is covered through readings as well as lectures and discussions led by faculty experts from the Bren School and beyond. Students also develop a research proposal or analysis (as relevant to theirdegree) that is related to forest sustainability. Students present their proposals/projects in the final week of the course; proposals may form the basis of subsequent MESM Group Projects or PhD research.
