   [Web Feed] Research topics for Env Studi

    -*How to come up with a topic relevant for interdisciplinary environmental   
   studies, linking my experience in env. law with other disciplines?*   
    -*What are relevant issues in Env. studies?*   
      
      
   *(My experience: transboundary harm, migratory species, traditional   
   environmental knowledge. I also gravitate towards nuclear waste disposal or   
   climate change )*   
      
   TL;DR   
      
   I am considering applying for several Masters programs abroad (I m not from   
   the US) in Env. Studies (not Science). Those are multidisciplinary, involve   
   some science, policy, law, management, economics. I had some experience with   
   international    
   environmental law through awards in Moot courts.   
      
   [My research topics involved transboundary harm, migratory species,   
   traditional environmental knowledge. On the other hand, I worked in Big4 as a   
   legal consultant, with direct involvement in projects on desertification   
   resulting from oil drilling.]   
      
   In my research proposal due in July I need to choose a topic that could link   
   to my legal background. I hope this will enable me to somehow justify my   
   transition into Env. Studies. I would appreciate any insights from those   
   involved in similar programs /    
   who had a similar experience. My research topic should gravitate towards   
   interdisciplinary scope, combining law/policy aspects with Env Sc. Having   
   searched on my own, I found nuclear waste disposal, the climate change   
   framework worth looking at.   
      
   My chances of getting into are quite low, esp. compared to overproductive   
   applicants with directly relevant backgrounds, though it's worth trying.
