Course Overview

The MSc Economics & Policy of Energy & Climate Change aims to produce future leaders in energy and climate change sectors. 

The course addresses the complex and increasingly more extreme challenges and uncertainties that industries, economies, governments and societies face. By the end of the programme, you'll be well-equipped to understand these and have the knowledge to adapt to this changing context. 

You'll learn about the rapid changes within the global energy system, how this is impacted by climate change, and by the efforts to mitigate its impacts. These changes include escalating energy demand, constraints on supplies, implications on the energy mix, introduction of smart grids, fluctuating energy prices, regulatory pressures to reduce carbon emissions and promote sustainability, increased integration of renewable energy sources, and changing demographics and patterns of energy use and supply. 

The course offers excellent opportunities to network with various organisations' energy and climate change specialists. We've designed the system to maximise the opportunities for industry engagement. You'll also be able to participate in events organised by the Scottish Energy Forum.

The course covers areas of particular strengths of the Department of Economics, focusing on energy and climate change. Through the Fraser of Allander Institute, the department also boasts research expertise in applying economic knowledge in the policy field.
