PUAD 5348-004, CRN 47292, Energy Policy and Administration
The course considers some of the international impact of U.S. energy policy and examines each significant form of energy (oil, natural gas, nuclear power, electricity, coal and alternatives/renewables) in terms of the manner in which each form is regulated by various government institutions. To understand the various forms of energy policy and administration, we will also consider a substantial amount of statutory, regulatory, economic, and political information. Each segment of the course will be presented in terms of specific problems that participating students will help analyze and solve. At each stage of the course, we will consider the current policies and attempt to develop administrative goals and positions that will improve those energy-related policies. Graduate course meets on Tuesday evenings.
