Lewis & Clark Law School’s highly ranked Environmental, Natural Resources, and Energy Law program now offers a Master of Studies in Environmental, Natural Resources, and Energy Law (MSL) for non-lawyers. This graduate degree is for those who have a bachelor’s degree and are interested in learning about environmental law, but who do not wish to practice law or obtain a law degree. Potential students include federal agency employees, teachers, elected officials, journalists, and people pursuing careers in lobbying or non-profit organizations, as well as business people who want a better understanding of environmental regulations.
Recent graduates are enthusiastic about the program:
Cassidy Valenzuela (’16): “This was the exact law program I was looking for! It gave me the foundational knowledge to effectively and confidently communicate about environmental law without preparing me to litigate. The professors are experts in their field, yet maintain sincere approachability with students. Every aspect of my time in this program prepared me for a career in environmental policy.” Staff for Rep. Paul Holvey, Oregon Legislature.
“As a reporter, I’ve spent countless hours wading through court documents and trying to make sense of legal tangles in the energy and environmental policy world. Lewis & Clark Law School’s Master’s program is giving me indispensable knowledge that will help me understand and analyze these issues for future reporting.” Ellen Gilmer, (’14) Environmental Journalist
We look forward to hearing from interested applicants. For more information please contact Lucy Brehm, Assistant Director of Environmental, Natural Resources, and Energy Law, at
