LLB Environmental Law
Course overview
This LLM Environmental Law at the University of Dundee gives students a full understanding of environmental law at local, national, and international stages, focusing strongly on sustainable development. The course teaches them the legal and policy skills required to solve major global problems such as climate change, loss of natural habitats, and managing resources, preparing them to lead legal changes.
Students will get high-quality teaching from professors with international standing, usually in small seminar groups for clearer discussion and learning.
