Economic and Policy Analysis for Climate Risks

Society Hub / CNCC Subject Area · 3 Credits

Climate change poses systemic risks to our economy and society. This course provides students with the analytical framework to understand, quantify, and manage climate-related risks. We will explore both physical risks from a changing climate and transition risks arising from the shift to a low-carbon economy. Students will gain hands-on experience with empirical assessment and scenario analysis. Through individual assignments and a collaborative project, students will develop the skills to critically examine the economic and social trade-offs involved in addressing complex climate change challenges.
