Newcastle Law School offers free online course
Newcastle Law School offers free online course in International Climate Change Law and Policy
We know the idea of studying abroad can be daunting. What if you move all the way around the world and your courses aren’t what you expected?
To help prospective students get a feel for studying law, Newcastle Law School is offering a free online course in International Climate Change Law and Policy. The course is coordinated by Dr. Elena Aydos (Newcastle Law School, UON), Dr. Sven Rudolph (Graduate School of Global Environmental Studies, Kyoto University) and Professor Christopher Kellett (School of Electrical Engineering and Computing, UON).
This four-week course commences July 17, 2019. You will have the opportunity to learn how to critically assess environmental economics theory and its application to climate change policy, including the use of market-based policy approaches such as environmental taxes and emissions trading.
While this course doesn’t generate credits toward a degree program, it’s a great “taster” for Law and Economics of Climate Change, which is an elective course in both the Juris Doctor/Graduate Diploma of Legal Practice program and in the Master of Environmental Law.
If you are considering studying law in Australia, this online course is a great way to get a feel for how law is taught at the University of Newcastle!
Enrolments are open via the edX online platform.
