David H. Cohen, Ph.D.

Professor, Faculty of Forestry
The University of British Columbia

Professor David Cohen has been at UBC from 1989 since completing his Ph.D. at Virginia Tech University. He had started his University education at age 37 after a career working for both industry and government.

Recently David has focused on sustainability and globalization. Recent research has focused on ethical investment funds, consumer behaviour and green building and the shift to ecosystem forest management. Much of his research has focused on Asian (China and Japan) and North American markets. His research focuses on fundamental drivers of demand such as demographics, cultural shifts and impacts of globalization. He has completed research projects in China, Japan, Europe, North America and Oceana.

Dr. Cohen has served as a Director to associations (Canadian Wood Council) and companies. He has acted as a consultant to many companies and government organizations in North America, New Zealand, China, Japan, and Europe. Currently Dr. Cohen is teaching both in the Faculty of Forestry and Commerce. He was instrumental in developing the new concentration in Business and Sustainability at the UBC Sauder School of Business MBA Program.
