Program Information
Attracting students from a wide range of academic and professional backgrounds, this program takes an interdisciplinary approach to the scientific, economic and ethical aspects of environmental and energy law. Our curriculum prepares students to become environmental and energy professionals as well as law practitioners.
Students
Students may join the Program in Environmental and Energy Law after their
first year at IIT Chicago-Kent.
Approximately 35 students from diverse educational and career backgrounds
currently participate in the program. Enrolled in any single class might
be a nuclear reactor operator, a waste industry project manager, an outdoor
journalist, a corporate environmental manager, a fisheries biologist,
an energy industry magazine editor, a Sierra Club activist, a microbiologist,
an architect, and environmental engineers.
Many students in the program, however, are not already environmental
and energy professionals. The varied perspectives provided by fellow classmates
is an important part of the Chicago-Kent educational experience.
