Fall 2014: PhD in Energy and Environment

[rahul188]

Hi,

 

I've just completed my applications for a PhD centred around energy access/distributed generation/renewable energy. All the programmes I've applied to are interdisciplinary and are either energy/environment or public affairs/policy programmes. My focus would mainly be economics and institutional analysis. Thought I'd start this thread to gather around people with common interests and those who're applying to the same schools, so we can share info about the schools and update each other on admissions.

 

My schools are:

 

- UC Berkeley (ERG)

- Indiana (SPEA)

- Columbia (SIPA)

- UMich (SNRE)

- GTech (Public Policy)

Hi Raul, I'm on a similar track. How did the applications work out and do you have any advice after finishing the process? Did you have advisors picked out, what was your contact like with professors beforehand?

Thanks!
