Prof. Coleman studies how and why people act collectively to solve environmental problems. He completed his doctoral work at Indiana University under the late, Nobel Laureate, Elinor Ostrom. Professor Coleman has published many peer-reviewed articles on these topics. His research appears in some of the top general science journals (PNAS, Nature Sustainability) as well as the top disciplinary journals of political science (AJPS), policy analysis, and human-environment interactions. His research extends our knowledge of environmental governance by systematically measuring and quantifying the effects that different types of policy have on the sustainable use of resources. Recent projects include examining oil and gas extraction in Uganda and forest restoration programs in Northern India.
