Overview

The curriculum melds diverse and rigorous pedagogy with practical, real-world opportunities available only in Washington, D.C.

During the first semester, students enroll in a specialized Environmental Lawyering Seminar. This seminar is designed to facilitate high-level idea exchange, cohort-building among classmates, and the opportunity to engage with our world-renowned faculty in a small setting.

The Program

Throughout the year, students in the Environmental and Energy Law LL.M. degree from Georgetown University design a course-load tailored to their areas of interest within the environmental and energy law arenas. Students are also required to complete an internship or a practicum course to hone practical legal skills. Such opportunities abound in every aspect of environmental and energy law, including options in private firms and energy companies. Congress, courts, governmental agencies, international organizations such as the World Bank, UNEP, and other non-governmental organizations are all nearby. Also, the Georgetown Climate Center gives students the chance to work on cutting edge climate and energy policy issues.
