CEE 5309 - Global Resource Assessment and Management


Credits: 3

Provides an understanding of how the management of global resources has an inter-related impact on the resilience of our environment and civilization, and explores ways to assess resource use in global development projects. Students examine global energy distribution and production, and its impact on air quality, goods production and transit, food availability, ocean use and impact, climate change, and global housing. Alongside the lectures, a series of practical workshop lab exercises introduce hands-on tools for global resource management, including food security indicators, environmental justice, risk management, and metrics for sustainable policy assessment.
