Re: Study abroad w/environmental or ecological economics??
I would recommend the course/program that I used to teach until this past semester. Its on "International Environment and Development" with a fair amount of economics in the development section (at least when I was teaching it). Its a full semester, mostly based in DC but with 3 weeks overseasmakes for a great combination of DC/global policy with on-the-ground local perspectives.

Re: Study abroad w/environmental or ecological economics??
Richard, I would suggest looking at: University of East Anglia (UK) Oxford University (UK) Cambridge University (UK) University of Southhampton (UK) University of Leeds (UK) London School of Economics (UK) University of Edinburgh (UK) Free University of Amsterdam (NL) University of Wageningen (NL) Free University of Berlin (DE) University of Heidelberg (DE) University of Florence (IT) University of Bologna (IT) University of Louvaine le neuve (BE) University of Graz (AUT) University of Innsbruck (AUT) University of Lund (SWE) Chalmers University (SWE) Federal Technical University Zurich (CH) University of Bern (CH) University of Aix en Provence (FR) There are probably a lot more, but these are some of the places in Europe that immediately come to mind with good environment and/or economics departments. Since the harmonization of European univsersities that has occurred over the last 5-10 years, almost all European universities have programs for visiting students from foreign universities, and in most cases there are plenty of courses with English as the language of instruction. Outside of Europe I am less familiar, but the Australian National University, National University of Singapore, and University of Cape Town all come to mind as being excellent.
