Environmental law encompasses every aspect of the practical application of environmental policy. If you are interested in studying in this field, there is some good news and some bad news. The good news is that there are now many fine institutions that have significant environmental law programs. These courses are taught by experts in the field, and can prepare you for a career specializing in a particular area of environmental law that interests you. Now for the bad news.
Environmental law is a graduate-level subject, that is studied in law school.
While many undergraduate programs offer courses in environmental law and policy, these are surveys that are unable to include the depth and focus that the law school course offers. So the first obstacle to studying environmental law is getting into a law school, which like Pace, has significant course offerings in environmental law. More bad news. This means that coursework in environmental law begins in earnest, in your second year of law school. Don t let this discourage you, environmental law is worth the hurdles that you may be facing.
