Climate science provides us with tools to predict climate variations on a variety of time scales. Practitioners who are trained to understand as well as to communicate the science can help to get this information into the hands of people making decisions that affect socioeconomic conditions such as food security or water management.
This can help societies both take advantage of beneficial impacts as well as reduce the risks posed by climate variability. The M.A. program in Climate and Society at Columbia University is designed to help young professionals and academics understand advances in climate science and forecasting and connect them with meaningful decisions.
Graduates from the Climate and Society Program work at the nexus of social science, climate science and public policy.
