Energy Politics and Law

Summary

When ‘energy’ is mentioned, there is perhaps a natural tendency to immediately think of oil or maybe electricity. However, the study of energy is about so much more. As we witness our planet and society confront the swift and relentless consequences of climate change, we are also undergoing the largest energy transition that humankind has ever seen.

MSc Energy Politics & Law is a comprehensive programme that provides you with the building blocks of energy’s role within politics, economics, and law to equip you for careers in any organisation or sector engaging with energy as a topic of policy and praxis.

This programme provides the opportunity and ability to analyse energy as a political instrument, a modern commodity, and a social necessity. Over the course of the MSc, you will have the chance to examine energy within multiple disciplines, looking at issues such as:

• The role of energy within climate and environmental politics and policy
• The securitisation of energy and its role in conflict and violence
• The political and social consequences of fossil fuel and green energy development
• Energy regulations, and gaps in regulation, at the domestic and international levels
• The economics of energy supply, distribution, and consumption
• The legal, economic, and political opportunities and challenges facing our global transition to renewable energies
