The programme is designed to give the students a comprehensive understanding of the institutional and legal framework which determines the development of environmental and energy regulations at a national and international level, within the EU, and industry level.
The Master’s Programme in Environmental and Energy Law gives the students a comprehensive understanding of legal, political and financial aspects of the subject area as well as specialised knowledge within environmental and energy law.
