| 8 | Conservation Biology | WBLS19010 |
Conservation biology is the bridge between pure and applied ecology, evolutionary biology and genetics on the one side; and wildlife management, environmental science and restoration on the other. Although it is often crisis-oriented—in that immediate solutions have to be found to specific problems—it is increasingly characterized as strategic and preventive. Sound science can inform an adaptable management plan for mitigation, as well as long-term protection and sustainability.
The course is divided into three themes:
1) Motivation for studying biodiversity and conservation. This includes background considerations for setting conservation priorities, identifying ecosystem services and exploring conservation economics. These societal concerns are then developed in the scientific context of general ecological (i.e., non-linear responses , chaotic dynamics, alternate stable states, emergent properties) and evolutionary (i.e., deep-time events, extinction, speciation, paleoclimates) mechanisms of change.
2) Threats to biodiversity and problem identification. This theme explores the five major threats to biodiversity—overexploitation of natural resources, habitat loss and fragmentation, eutrophication and pollution, introductions and invasive species, and the effects of climate change. Each threat is explored in detail with theory and case studies taken from the terrestrial and marine environments.
3) Conservation strategies. This theme explores specific methods of protection, from individual species to whole ecosystems, the role of factors such as behavior, genetics, population connectivity and landscape/seascape heterogeneity. It then explores some of the many dilemmas such as gaps in international law, multi-user conflicts, placing legal responsibility, and communication between scientists, managers, politicians and the public. |

| 10 | Dilemmas in Infrastructure Planning | GEMDILEIP |
| This course focuses on network and governance dilemmas that arise in the planning and realization of different kinds of infrastructure networks. In three thematic blocks three waterway, energy and road infrastructure networks will be covered. In total, the course consists of four thematic blocks, as the first block focuses on the general debates on network and governance theory and translates these debates into two main perspectives – a network perspective and a governance perspective. Each of the three thematic blocks will be discussed on the basis of both perspectives. The end of each block is marked by a formative exam. At the end of the thematic blocks there are also mandatory excursions with assignments. Costs may have to be made for these excursions. |

| 11 | Economics of Regulating Markets | EBM148A05 |
| The central theme of the course is: how do energy markets, in particular electricity and gas markets, function and how can this be improved by governments (regulators). The functioning of energy markets differs from many other sectors because of the economies of scale of the networks, resulting in natural monopolies, the importance of network balance, the societal objective to radically change the nature of the energy industry (i.e. energy transition) and the fact that energy is a basic commodity which is needed by everyone. Topics to be discussed are among others: how to determine the tariffs that an operator of an electricity network is allowed to charge on users of the infrastructure? How to implement competition in the energy industry, both on wholesale level and retail level? To what extent need the energy markets be changed because of the energy transition in which conventional plants are replaced by renewable sources (as wind and solar)? Knowledge of economics of regulating market is useful for positions within regulated companies (TenneT, Gasunie, etc.), companies using regulated infrastructures (in particular large energy users), governments (national, EU), regulatory bodies (ACM, ACER, etc.) and consultancies (PWC, Oxera, etc.). The course not only deals with the economic theory behind the regulation of markets, but also applies this theory to real-life problems in energy markets. The course consists of lectures and tutorials every week. Each week we discuss a specific topic. We start by discussing the question why some markets, in particular energy markets, need regulation and others not, Then, we discuss how the government could regulate these markets. These first meetings are meant to give the students some theoretical background in economic regulation. Afterwards, we discuss key issues in the daily practice of regulation: benchmarking on efficiency and the determination of the the appropriate reward (i.e. the WACC) on capital which is invested in the network. These questions are highly important for regulated firms as it affects how much profit they are allowed to make and to which extent they are able to finance the investments. Then, we go into in the question how to implement competition in energy markets. We discuss the design of electricity and gas markets on wholesale level and how these markets become more integrated on an international level. We also pay attention to how environmental regulation (like emissions trading and subsidies for renewables) affects the electricity sector/market. In the final meeting, we pay attention to the retail energy market, discussing how competition can be implemented in markets where the demand is affected by factors like (perceived) switching costs and trust retailers. Every week there will be assignments, which are discussed in the tutorials based on presentations by students. In addition, there will be a few extra meetings where we recap the material of the first weeks. This course is part of the focus area 'Energy'. When you focus your MSc on energy subjects you will be awarded an official acknowledgement on your diploma, improving and broadening your career opportunities in the energy sector.

| 12 | Energy & Finance | EBM166A05 |
This is a course in the MSc Finance which focuses on energy risk analysis and management. Almost all methods that are developed and used in financial market analysis can be used in energy markets as well. However, we concentrate on two general methods in particular and aim to deepen their understanding. These are real option analysis and energy instruments and derivatives. Firstly, real option analysis uses the mathematical methods of derivatives pricing to analyze the value of various types of flexibilities in (real) investment projects. The real option analysis so far has only remotely been touched upon in the finance curriculum and is perfectly suitable to apply in the valuation of energy projects. Secondly, we delve into energy risk management as, in energy markets, many risks are related to underlying cost structures and the characteristics of volatility of prices. Power prices for instance are related to the price of the fuels and to carbon prices. Some ‘fuels’ like wind and solar energy are intermittent whereas other aren’t. Power companies and (industrial) companies will be using different mixes of energy in their business. This suggests integrated risk management is required. In the course Energy & Finance, we investigate how to assess the exposure of firms to a variety of energy risks regarding both their costs and revenues and study the management strategies regarding these risks.

| 14 | Energy Transition & Innovation | EBM167A05 |
The shift towards renewable energy requires innovation in technologies and social behavior. The energy industry has changed and is changing dramatically. Once an oligopolistic structure, the industry is rapidly changing and incumbent businesses face threats from disruptive innovation. Similarly, newcomers face high levels of uncertainty about future demand, technological trajectories, and governmental policies. What does this mean for the established players and new start-ups? And what is the role of renewable energy innovation to be competitive in this industry? The purpose of this course is to give students an advanced understanding of these topics, using current academic research on strategy and innovation, to understand how collaboration and innovation can be used in this industry to adjust to change. We consider the complex transition towards sustainable energy, and will focus on the role of government-industry and industry-industry collaborations. In the process, students gain knowledge about how to realize and align partnerships in the transition of traditional (fossil fuels) to more sustainable sources of energy (wind, solar, biomass, tidal power).

| 15 | Environmental psychology | PSMSB-2 |
| Ons gedrag levert een belangrijke bijdrage aan milieuproblemen. Hoe kunnen we mensen motiveren om milieuvriendelijk gedrag te vertonen, en hoe beïnvloeden omgevingsfactoren ons welzijn en gedrag? De omgevingspsychologie bestudeert de transactie tussen mensen en hun natuurlijke en gebouwde omgeving. In het eerste deel van de cursus gaan we in op de invloed van de omgeving op het welzijn en gedrag van mensen. Er wordt onder meer besproken hoe omgevingsstressoren (zoals lawaai en stank) en risico's (zoals klimaatverandering) invloed kunnen uitoefenen op het welzijn en het gedrag van mensen. Daarnaast wordt ingegaan op het belang van natuur voor gezondheid en welzijn. In het tweede deel wordt ingegaan op de invloed van de mens op de kwaliteit van het milieu. We gaan in op factoren die van invloed zijn op milieugedrag en factoren die invloed hebben op de effecten en de acceptatie van milileubeleid. We gaan specifiek in op psychologische aspecten gerelateerd aan klimaatverandering, en mogelijkheden om een duurzame energietransitie te stimuleren. Deskundingen van binnen en buiten de vakgroep geven gastcolleges. |

| 19 | Global Supply Chain Man & Sustainability | EBM201A05 |
Globalization has changed the world and has certainly changed supply chain management. Collaboration and coordination across multiple tiers of manufacturers, suppliers, and service providers located in different countries constitute substantial challenges. Geographical distances, cultural discrepancies, institutional differences, laws and tax issues, among others, add to the complexity of global supply chain management. Additionally, the emergence of sustainability as a competitive priority poses an important additional challenge for the management of supply chains. On the one hand because substantial tensions might exist between sustainability and traditional supply chain targets like costs, delivery, quality, and flexibility. On the other hand, growing concerns about the environment might well lead to another period of drastic changes in many globalized supply chains (e.g. distributed manufacturing).
This course aims to enable our students to understand, analyze, and develop strategies to cope with the challenges in designing and managing global supply chains. The course covers the following five main topics:
1. A (historical/economical) perspective on the emergence, the nature and the future of global supply chains
2. Global supply chains: drivers and trends including Offshoring and Reshoring
3. Management of global supply chains (e.g. retail distribution in emerging megacities, relationship with international suppliers)
4. Managing sustainability in multi-tier supply chains
5. Paradoxes and tensions in sustainable supply chain management |

| 34 | Reinventing Environmental Planning | GEMREENVPL |
| The course discusses recent changes in the field of environmental planning related to the emergence of sustainable development as a prime governance guideline. The course explains how sustainable development challenges the reliance on reactive and regulatory based policies that have long been common in environmental planning in many countries. Sustainable development is presented as a call for more proactive policies that integrate environmental concerns in overall governance activities. These calls for governance renewal are connected to wider shifts in both planning theory and practice, away from command and control policies towards a richer variety of policy approaches, inspired by for example market processes, public and private partnerships, communicative rationality and multi-level governance. While discussing recent changes in environmental planning, students are invited and stimulated to develop a critical and constructive attitude, while drawing on a ‘post-contingency’ perspective for identifying various theoretical arguments and doubts regarding these changes. Students will subsequently be shown examples of changes in environmental planning, related to five dominant environmental issues: urban development, nature and biodiversity, climate change, air pollution and energy. Students will be invited during a written exam to critically discuss and reflect on recent changes in environmental planning. Finally, through assignments, students need to show their ability to make theoretically supported and well-argued choices between different planning strategies and measures when faced with different issues and circumstances. |

| 40 | Social Impact Assessment | GEMSOCIMAS |
Social Impact Assessment (SIA) is the process of managing the social issues of projects and policies. This course enables students to understand the significance, possibilities and pitfalls relating to the use of SIA with interventions that have spatial consequences. Upon completion of the course, students will be capable of applying their knowledge of the theory of SIA to practical project strategies and to improved spatial policies. With SIA being more than a technique, and being a philosophy about development and democracy, students will have increased their awareness of the social impacts of spatial interventions.
SIA includes the processes of analysing, monitoring and managing the intended and unintended social consequences, both positive and negative, of planned interventions (policies, programs, plans, projects) and any social change processes invoked by those interventions. Its primary purpose is to bring about a more sustainable and equitable bio-physical and human environment” (Vanclay 2003). SIA works with regulatory agencies to contribute to decision-making and approval processes; SIA works with the proponent of a development plan to improve projects through project (re)design, site selection, and design and implementation of mitigation measures and monitoring programs; and SIA works with the community to assist them in coping with change and planning for positive futures. |

| 51 | Transitions in Water Management | GEMTRWATM |
Due to continuous urbanisation and the increasing impacts of climate change, flood risks in delta areas are increasing, and, as a consequence, water management is high on the international political and societal agenda. Worldwide, the need is recognized to develop strategies and measures to adapt land use to the already occurring effects of climate change, and to develop integrated and adaptive approaches for dealing with water issues in low-lying urban deltas. The development and implementation of these integrated and adaptive approaches is however not an easy task, as they often involve a substantive and/or governance transition in water management.
Drawing on a theoretical exploration of the nature of water transitions (including the notions of flood resilience and adaptability), and the way in which transitions can be managed, the course focuses on identifying current transitions in water management in relation to climate change, and on discussing issues and dilemmas in the attempts to manage these water transitions in establishing resilient delta areas. Through a group assignment, students will develop the capacity to suggest practical strategies and possibilities for water transition management for specific planning situations. |
