Duke’s international Master of Environmental Policy (iMEP) program, offered at Duke Kunshan University, is a collaboration between the Sanford School of Public Policy and the Nicholas School of the Environment at Duke University. The program trains students to be global environmental leaders with the knowledge and experience to create evidence-based environmental policy solutions.
Students in the program benefit from small classes, one-to-one interaction with world-class faculty, a cutting-edge research center, unparalleled career opportunities, and an advanced degree from world-renowned Duke University. iMEP students have the opportunity to immerse themselves in a variety of fields, including but not limited to economics, statistics, energy, climate change, water management, conservation biology, environmental health, environmental law and governance.
iMEP students develop their expertise on a specific topic through an internship and a one-year master’s project. For students worldwide who care about the environment and want to make a difference, the iMEP program, based at DKU, is a place where they can meet their mentors and friends, and greet new challenges and discoveries.
“ Interdisciplinary ESG Courses for a Global Perspective ”
Building on the strong relationship between the iMEP program and Duke University, iMEP students will have the opportunity to spend a semester at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, USA, where they will interact with the broader Duke faculty, gain additional English-language experience, and build networks with US-based contacts.
At the same time, the program will bring students pursuing a master’s degree from the Nicholas and Sanford schools to Duke Kunshan, further increasing diversity and networking opportunities in the iMEP program. Internships with a range of international organizations, NGOs, and corporations round out the opportunities available to iMEP students.
