The Academic Department of Economics & Policy examines economic processes with a focus on the role of public policy. It addresses contemporary policy issues by means of theoretical and empirical investigations into public economics, health economics, industrial organization, environmental economics, sustainable resources management, agricultural and food economics, forestry, energy economics, and the economics of ageing.
Special emphasis is given to policy conflicts between equity, efficiency, and sustainability.
