To Prospective Graduate School Applicants:

I am just beginning to build a research team at UC Berkeley and am thus interested in recruiting students that work in CLOSELY RELATED areas of research. In the next few years, I hope to admit students to work with me. I am particularly interested in students who have worked on new governance schemes (such as fair trade initiatives, codes and monitoring systems, product take-back schemes, etc.) or who have direct work experience in the industrial sectors which I am studying (such as electronics, oil, paper products, etc.). In general, I am most interested in students with a proven record of performance both in academics and professional or advocacy work. 

Please read about my current research before you contact me. If you feel your work fits closely with my research, and would like to inquire about applying, please send me an email with your research interests and resume attached as a PDF file.Unfortunately, because I receive so many email inquiries from prospective students, I will not be able to respond to every inquiry.

Also, if you have any detailed questions about the admissions process, GRE score requirements, etc., please contact the ESPM Graduate Information Office.
