WHY DUKE LAW?
Because we anticipate emerging issues.
Sustainable Advocacy examines the instrumental role Duke Law alumni played in launching the environmental law movement and the continuing work of our students, faculty, and alumni in shaping the field. Beyond taking classes taught by professors who are leaders and experts in the field, students also gain experience by participating in the Environmental Law & Policy Clinic, serving on the editorial board of the Duke Environmental Law & Policy Forum, and collaborating with graduate students in the Duke Nicholas School of the Environment and Earth Sciences.
