Environmental focus leads to partnership
The University of Delaware and the Vermont Law School, which have strengths in environmental studies, have announced an articulation agreement to smooth the transition for UD graduates seeking to enroll at Vermont Law.
Vermont Law is a private, independent institution that has the top-ranked environmental law program and one of the top-ranked clinical training programs in the nation, according to U.S. News and World Report.
The new agreement provides that UD graduates who meet the Vermont Law entrance requirements will be guaranteed admission into its juris doctor, master’s or joint juris doctor/master’s programs.
“The University of Delaware is a leader in environmental education and research. Our agreement creates an exciting and unique pathway for our students to pursue their passion for environmental issues and policies,” says UD Provost Domenico Grasso.
Vermont Law President Marc B. Mihaly, who visited Delaware to meet with administrators, faculty members and students, says the partnership is a good fit because of UD’s strong programs in environmental science.
“It aligns our mutual strengths,” he says.
