Matthew C. Nisbet is a professor of Communications and Public Policy at Northeastern University. He is the former Editor-in-Chief of Environmental Communication and Senior Editor of the Oxford Encyclopedia of Climate Change Communication. His columns regularly appear in science periodicals.
After graduation in 1996, he worked at the Public Interest Research Group on a campaign reform initiative and at the Center for Inquiry in Buffalo. These experiences motivated him to enroll in graduate studies to explore the relationship between politics, the media and public communications, which he did in 1999. His minor at Dartmouth was in Environment Studies and he eventually settled upon climate change as a special area of interest. He advocates for more focus on the local impact on public health in communications about climate change, as a way to engage a larger segment of the public and more stakeholders.[1]
Since 2017, he has been Professor of Communication, Policy and Urban Affairs at Northeastern University, where he started teaching in 2014. Previously, he taught at the American University and Ohio State University.[2][3]
