The intersection of energy and environmental stability is a growing area of interest for the public, private, and non-governmental sectors. International development organizations are exploring how sustainable sources of energy can drive economic growth. In the private sector, there is an increased focus on energy and environmental issues as they relate to supply chain management, transportation costs, and corporate responsibility. There is also growing concern around the relationship between natural resources, regional conflict, and national security. The interrelationship between environmental and energy issues will continue to provide new and challenging opportunities across sectors for international affairs graduates.
