S. Mohsen Fatemi

I offer an undergraduate research opportunity to mentor students interested in energy and environmental research, focusing on energy justice and electric utilities as part of my doctoral dissertation.

My name is Mohsen, and I am a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Public Affairs and Administration at the University of Kansas. My research focuses on sustainable energy and environmental governance, policy, and justice. I bring professional experience as an urban planner and architect, specializing in sustainability, climate action planning, and energy efficiency. I hold a Master of Urban Planning from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, alongside an earlier Master’s in Architecture and Energy from the University of Tehran, as well as a Bachelor’s in Architecture.

Currently, I am working on my doctoral dissertation, examining how energy justice is addressed in the planning processes of investor-owned utilities.

I also serve as Co-Director of the Secretariat at the Public Management Research Association (PMRA) and am an active member of the Environmental Sustainability Advisory Board for the City of Lawrence, KS.
