This double degree combines legal knowledge with a deep understanding of environmental systems, preparing you to make a real impact. You’ll gain the skills to influence policy, protect natural resources and drive change, supported by hands-on science projects and strong industry connections across both disciplines. You will gain knowledge and skills across the broad environmental science spectrum, exploring environmental issues from social, physical and biological perspectives, including: environmental economics, environmental ethics, environmental law and governance, and the national and international policy contexts. Griffith Law School offers a professional legal curriculum, with the option to choose law electives based on your interests, including high-level research and clinical courses that emphasise practical legal skills, insights and experience. You will also be equipped with the skills required of an environmental practitioner and have the opportunity to undertake capstone projects or an industry placement.
