Courses & Student Opportunities
Courses in the Environmental and Natural Resources Law & Policy Program (ENRLP) are designed for students planning to practice environmental law and for those interested in addressing public policy issues. The courses examine issues of broad relevance to public law, including the administrative process, statutory interpretation, alternative approaches to regulating economic activities, multi-party negotiation, and legal ethics. We encourage students from related disciplines to enroll.
Students may also take advantage of several exciting joint degree graduate programs, publish cutting edge legal scholarship in the Stanford Environmental Law Journal, experience hands-on legal work in the Environmental Law Clinic, and get involved with a variety of student environmental groups.
