Room: 229

Nakul Heroor has so far traversed an academic path that is diverse and reflective of his varied interests and engagements. He started his university studies with a bachelor’s in computer engineering. This was followed by two master’s—in economics (at the Delhi School of Economics) and in logic and philosophy of science (at LMU Munich). A common thread that weaves his studies together is his enduring engagement with topics related to ecology and climate change. In his bachelor’s thesis, he worked on optimizing clustering algorithms to be used on remote sensing data for insights into land-cover and land-use changes in South India, and his master’s thesis, titled “Robustness and Values in Climate Science and Climate Economic Models,” examined the epistemological underpinnings of climate-economic and climate-scientific (GCM) models by way of a comparative analysis.

Outside of academia, he has worked as a tutor, a start-up co-founder, and a data engineer at an energy-pricing company.

His current project sits at the confluence of his interests in epistemological questions concerning environmental and ecological thought and his engagement with literature.
