The fields of energy law, environmental law, and land use law, while distinct, have increasingly become interconnected as law and policy domains. The curriculum at Vanderbilt Law School allows students to focus on any these fields individually or gain a broader exposure to their intersections.
First-year students are introduced to agencies, statutes, and the central role they play in the American legal system in The Regulatory State. This required course, along with Property Law and Torts, lays the groundwork for upper-level electives devoted to EELU topics:
Energy Law | Environmental Law I: Public Environmental Governance |
Environmental Law II: Private Environmental Governance | Land Use Planning |
Energy & Environmental Federalism | Sustainable Cities |
Water Law | Local Government Law |
