| MASTER OF SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY (MS-STEP)
The Master of Science in Science, Technology, and Environmental Policy degree trains students in the role of science and technology in the economy, in food production and health, in energy and the environment, in security policy, and in education. Training also covers the impact of science and technology on the political and economic relationships among nations. MS students are educated in the analysis and design of policies for appropriate promotion and regulation of science and technology regionally, nationally, and internationally. MS students typically have undergraduate degrees or advanced coursework in one of the natural or engineering sciences.

 Joseph Plummer
Master of Science in Science, Technology, and Environmental Policy alumnus
"I entered the master of science program in hopes of being able to apply my science and engineering background to public policy. I find myself most interested in issues that impact the environment such as energy policy. I'm also interested in how economic theory can be applied to serve public policy goals.
After working for several years as an electrical engineer in the defense and space industry, I decided to make a career switch and pursue my interests in environmental and sustainability issues. The MS-STEP degree seemed like a natural fit given my engineering background and interests. I feel fortunate to have been a part of the MS-STEP program, as it helped prepare me for an interesting career in a field of growing importance." |
