Biography

Chang Wang is a postdoctoral research fellow with the Erb Institute for Global Sustainable Enterprise ((joint program by Ross School of Business and School for Environment and Sustainability) at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. She is interested in the interface of environment and policy, especially how effective policies are designed to promote emission reduction at the corporate, region, and international levels. Her past and ongoing research focuses on the intended and unintended effects of some most important carbon and energy policies, including carbon neutrality goals (Journal of Chinese Governance), green stimuli (iScience), energy industry restructuring (Energy Economics, Geoforum), and place-based regulation (Journal of Environmental Management, Earth's Future), as well as sustainable finance polices, emission trading systems, and bottom-up low-carbon initiatives.

Chang holds a PhD in Economics from Fudan University. During her PhD, she has (mostly) internationally-funded visiting positions at Yale University, the University of Warwick, and National University of Singapore. She has served as a committee member of the Energy Geographies Research Group within the Royal Geographical Society for three years consecutively.
