JD/MPHIL in Environmental Policy
Course of Study
Vermont Law and Graduate School’s partnership with the Department of Land Economy of the University of Cambridge enables selected VLGS students to earn a Juris Doctor (JD) degree from Vermont Law and Graduate School and a Master of Philosophy (MPhil) degree from the University of Cambridge in three and a half years. In the usual course of study, students complete four semesters at VLGS, followed by two semesters at Cambridge, and then one final semester at VLGS.
The following master’s degrees are available to Vermont Law and Graduate School students selected for this program:
- MPhil in Real Estate Finance
- MPhil in Environmental Policy
- MPhil in Planning, Growth and Regeneration
Admissions
Students must apply separately to and be accepted by VLGS and the University of Cambridge for admission to each element of the program. Applicants to the dual degree program must be approved by VLGS before applying to Cambridge. Application to the University of Cambridge will ordinarily occur during the fall of the student’s second year of study at VLGS.
Grades
Each school applies its own grading system to the students in the program. Students must be in good academic standing at both schools to remain in the program.
