Energy Law and Policy Certificate Program

The Graduate Certificate in Energy Law and Policy (the “Energy Certificate”) allows the Paul M. Hebert Law Center to officially recognize students who have demonstrated substantial competence in the study of energy law and related subject matter. It helps prepare participating students for careers in energy law and related fields by ensuring that they take appropriate coursework and gain exposure to relevant applied learning experiences.

Current LSU J.D. students who wish to earn the Energy Certificate must take four foundational courses and may select among a varied list of electives, for a total of 16 academic credit hours related to energy law and policy. Students will also write a research paper on a relevant topic and participate in applied learning experiences.
