Industrial Environmental Management Program

Industrial operations have an enormous impact on environmental quality. Their scale, their importance to the global economy, and the pressure they exert on natural resources make corporate decision-making a crucial factor in every area of environmental concern.

The Industrial Environmental Management (IEM) Program was established in 1990 at the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies. It combines front rank academic training and outreach in a comprehensive approach to understanding the relationship of the environment to our technological society. The academic component aims to equip students with an integrated set of skills for tackling complex, multifaceted environmental problems facing managers in industry, government, and related sectors. The outreach component ensures that the program's information and perspectives are shared with and informed by industrial, non-governmental, and governmental organizations throughout the world. Research is conducted through the associated Yale Center for Industrial Ecology.
