Recognized globally for environmental science excellence, UC Davis School of Law maintains its position as one of America's premier legal institutions. King Hall students frequently leverage these distinctive advantages by pursuing the Environmental and Natural Resources Law specialization. The program at UC Davis goes beyond teaching existing legislation, encouraging students to critically examine the forces influencing and potentially reforming environmental policy. This comprehensive curriculum equips future lawyers for diverse environmental practice areas, including dispute resolution, corporate dealings, and regulatory development.
The law school emphasizes hands-on legal training through various initiatives. Students participate in environmental advocacy competitions and negotiation tournaments while securing practical experience via externships with government agencies, nonprofit groups, and private sector firms specializing in environmental matters.
Beyond coursework, students enrich their legal education through organizational involvement, journal contributions, and event coordination. Environmental law enthusiasts particularly benefit from participation in groups like the Agricultural Law Society, Environmental Law Society, and Environmental Law Symposium, along with contributions to Environs and the Environmental Law and Policy Journal. The California Environmental Law & Policy Center (CELPC) further enhances opportunities by serving as a hub for environmental research and policy innovation.
