Our faculty are economists in the Berkeley Haas School of Business, UC Berkeley’s Department of Agricultural & Resource Economics, UC Berkeley’s Energy & Resources Group, and the UC Davis Economics Department. Our energy- and environment-focused PhD Students support our affiliated faculty on research projects and develop and pursue their own research agendas.
