Joe Frank Bozeman
Assistant Professor
- Climate and Energy Policy Laboratory
- School of Public Policy
Overview
Dr. Bozeman is an industrial ecologist committed to fostering ethical climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies. His current work focuses on circularity, food-energy-water, and urbanization & buildings. He specializes in developing novel approaches, datasets, and policy proposals using core methodologies such as life cycle assessment, scenario analysis, and survey administration.
He spent over a decade in the public and private sectors as an energy and environmental practitioner before joining Georgia Tech. As his courtesy appointment in the School of Public Policy suggests, Dr. Bozeman’s research involves cross-disciplinary collaboration. He has previously published award-winning content with psychology and economic experts, with public health experts, and intends to continue addressing the complex and ‘wicked’ challenges of our time in this manner.
