Barbara Haya, Research Fellow
Public Policy
Closed. This professor is continuing with Spring 2024 apprentices on this project; no new apprentices needed for Fall 2024.
The Berkeley Carbon Trading Project's Voluntary Registry Offsets Database is an important source of information and transparency in the carbon offset market and has been widely used by researchers, offset credit raters, offset buyers, and others. We welcome help from two or three advanced undergraduate students in automating the database and creating a web interface for it. Automation would be in R or Python.
Role: Two years ago a UC Berkeley senior developed the database in Excel. We are now looking to bring on other UC Berkeley students who can help us automate it and create a web interface for it.
Qualifications: Experience in R or Python and in data visualization.
Hours: to be negotiated
Off-Campus Research Site: This work can be done remotely.
