The University of Toronto Faculty of Law offers a unique setting for the study of environmental law. Our faculty counts leading experts in the subject among its ranks, including the endowed Metcalf Chair in Environmental Law. The city of Toronto is a centre of environmental activity, as the home of many environmental groups and environmental law practices.

Our environmental law curriculum builds upon the core areas of legal education in first year, many of which intersect with environmental law, and draws on the wide range of course offerings in the upper years to create opportunities for individualized programs of study. Courses can be supplemented by hands-on experience in the field, for credit or as extra-curricular activities. The law school's many internship programs provide further opportunities to work on environmental law issues around Canada and throughout the world. An active student community and links to environmental organizations in the city, around the country and internationally round out the student experience at U of T Law.
