As human population expands, economic development proceeds and new technologies arise, society faces more complex and previously unknown environmental problems. These problems need to be addressed in the context of an increasingly globalized economy where significant differences of environmental quality and quality of life persist. Already existing regulatory structures add another layer of complexity.
Through this bi-yearly distance-learning course students will grasp the general theory of Environmental Law, as well as establish a foundation for further research in this discipline. This course aims to cultivate students’ ability to consider and analyze from a philosophical level the vast number of issue concerning environmental law.
The course will be over a period of 6 weeks and will consist of 4 modules. Each module will be emailed to the students on their registered email address sequentially, subsequent to which they will be sent Assessment Papers. On the successful completion of each Assessment Paper, the students will be marked and graded. Only those who score a total of 40% in total will be eligible to receive Certificates. This course is conducted online, but certificates will sent through post. The results of the Course will be announced on the CELPD Website and the Certificates will be dispatched to the registered postal address within 10 days.
