Certificate of Specialization

Certificate of Specialization - J.D.

Students may undertake a specialization in environmental law. The specialized curricular program ensures students develop a broad background in fundamental areas of law while receiving advanced training in environmental law. Students who meet the requirements are awarded a Certificate of Specialization in Environmental Law at graduation.

Students who wish to earn the certificate must take Administrative Law and Environmental Law and Policy; complete three other environmental law courses or seminars and one other public law course (i.e., Constitutional Law: Individual Rights, Federal Courts, International Law, Legislation, or State and Local Government Law); and write a research paper on an environmental topic.
