Capstone Course
The Turner Environmental Law Clinic provides important pro bono representation to individuals, community groups, and non-profit organizations that seek to protect and restore the natural environment and promote environmental justice. Through its work, the Clinic offers students an intense, hands-on introduction to environmental law and trains the next generation of environmental attorneys.
Interdisciplinary Opportunities
Students may take a limited number of environmental classes in other departments of Emory University, including in the Department of Environmental Sciences and the Rollins School of Public Health's Department of Environmental Health.
Students particularly interested in the intersection of environmental law and public health may earn joint Juris Doctor (JD) and Master of Public Health (MPH) degrees.
