Environmental Law - master

The Joint Nordic Master Programme in Environmental Law (NOMPEL) aims to provide first class learning for students who want to gain expertise in international and EU environmental law, including those who want to subsequently pursue a PhD. The objective is to provide advanced knowledge in environmental law and insight into how crucial environmental issues are regulated internationally, within the EU, and in the Nordic states. Students will acquire specialist knowledge and legal expertise on the management of natural resources, the protection of biodiversity, climate change, and the energy transition.

Classes are taught by a range of international scholars through a series of lectures and seminars. There is a strong research approach to the programme, whereby students are expected to carry out their own investigations before class and will complete an individually written Master's thesis under expert supervision.

NOMPEL hereby gives students the unique opportunity to study in three Nordic countries at universities that each have specialist competence in environmental law, and to experience their different cultures and social environments.
