Description
Environmental lawyers, whether in private practice, government, or public interest, must have a sound grounding in the technical issues and concepts that form the basis for environmental regulatory programs, and that frequently arise in environmental litigation, transactions and site cleanups. A Certificate in Environmental Sustainability will be awarded to those JD students who obtain a minimum of 10 credits, including either the one-credit course, Human Rights and the Environment, or the one-credit course Environmental Justice: Domestic and International, and at least nine additional credits among select courses.
