Energy is the largest and one of the most dynamic industry sectors. It raises many challenges both politically and technically, from traditional exploration and production of fossil fuels to more recent mining extraction methods (hydraulic fracturing or 'fracking'), renewables and environmental protection.

All these constituent elements of Energy and Natural Resources law are approached through a comparative and international lens and prepare students to enter practice as regulators, lawyers in private practice of public sector lawyers.

This programme will:

  • Examine the area from a comparative, international and inter-disciplinary perspective.
  • Focus on both regulatory and transactional matters but also issues of policy.
  • Give you access to leading experts in the field who provide an accurate and measured assessment of key pervasive and emerging issues.
  • Approach the energy and natural resources law academically, from policy and a problem-solving perspective.
  • Provide you with unique internship and networking opportunities within the industry.
