FOR 797: Forest & Natural Resources Policy Seminar

The goal of the Forest and Natural Resources Policy Seminar is to provide graduate students with understanding of the forest and natural resources policy from a public administration, economic, political science, and behavioral sciences perspective. The seminar gives students a solid foundation for additional courses, independent research, theses, and dissertations.

The course meets one hour each week every semester. We read and discuss influential forest and natural resources policy articles and books. All of our policy graduate students in residence at ESF attend and participate in the course.

While Dr. Malmsheimer coordinates and administers the course, it is really taught by all the F&NR policy professors (Drs. Germain, Luzadis, Vonhof, and Wagner). We all attend and participate in the course, and we have cooperatively developed the reading list. In addition, guest speakers and other ESF faculty regularly join our discussion.
