The ELE Program

The Program on Economics, Law, and the Environment (ELE) is a research and education collaboration between the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics and the James Rogers College of Law. The ELE program includes a large group of faculty affiliates with strong research records in the area of environmental and resource questions. The ELE program is the only organization to explicitly merge the disciplines of economics and law into the study of the environment and natural resources. ELE is supported by the James E. Rogers College of Law, the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, and the Cardon Endowment for Agricultural and Resource Economics.

The JD/MS Program

The Program on Economics, Law, and the Environment announces a new J.D./M.S. program. In a rigorous 4-year program, students will complete their law degree (JD) and a Master of Science degree (MS) with a major in Agricultural and Resource Economics.

ELE Workshop

The ELE Program supports a regular workshop which hosts renowned scholars in economics, law, and related disciplines to present original research on environmental and natural resource topics. The ELE workshop meets Friday afternoons from 3:30-5:00 pm.
