Program Information

The Agricultural and Environmental Law certificate program expands the opportunity for degree-seeking students as well as life-long learners to enhance the knowledge of law, emerging legal issues focusing on agriculture, rural communities, and the food industry. The certificate addresses legal concepts pertaining to water quality, land-use and other environmental concerns. Additionally, students gain an appreciation of the challenges created by an expanding population on food production and renewable energy resources.

Course content is delivered online or on campus. In addition, selective coursework may be provided online through the Innovative Digital Education Alliance (IDEA) program, a collaborative, multi-institutional consortium.
