Center

Now
Accepting Applications for the 2014 – 2016
Fellowship
in Energy and Sustainable Development
West Virginia University College
of Law’s Center for Energy and Sustainable
Development is now accepting applications for a Fellowship in Energy and
Sustainable Development. The fellowship
combines the opportunity to work with attorneys, faculty and students at the
Center for Energy and Sustainable Development with the opportunity to obtain the
WVU Law LL.M. degree in Energy and Sustainable Development Law. The LL.M.
program provides a uniquely deep and balanced curriculum in perhaps the
nation’s richest natural resource region. The fellowship position involves
policy and legal research and writing, and assisting with organizing projects
such as conferences and workshops.
The Center for Energy and Sustainable Development
The Center is an energy and
environmental public policy and research organization at the WVU College of
Law. The Center conducts objective, unbiased research and policy analyses, and
focuses on promoting practices that will balance the continuing demand for
energy resources—and the associated economic benefits—alongside the need to
reduce the environmental impacts of developing the earth’s natural
resources. One mission of the Center is
to train the next generation of energy and environmental attorneys. The Center benefits from being located on the
campus of a major research institution, with expanded opportunities for
inter-disciplinary research and an integral role for the Center in providing
the policy, legal and regulatory analyses to support the technical research
being conducted across the WVU campus.
LL.M. in Energy and Sustainable Development Law
The WVU College of Law LL.M. in
Energy and Sustainable Development Law is the only LL.M. program in the United
States that provides a balanced curriculum in both energy law and the law of
sustainable development. Working with
WVU College of Law’s Center for Energy and Sustainable Development, LL.M.
students will develop the expertise to advise clients and provide leadership on
matters covering the full range of energy, environmental and sustainable
development law. The LL.M. in Energy and Sustainable Development Law provides a
broad and deep offering of courses, experiential learning opportunities, and
practical training for every part of the energy sector. Our broad spectrum of
courses allows our students to prepare to be lawyers serving energy companies,
investors, environmental organizations, landowners, utilities, manufacturing
companies, lawmakers, policymakers, regulators and land use professionals.
Energy and Sustainable Development Law Fellow
This fellowship is a part-time
(at least twenty hours per week), two-year position from August 2014
through July 2016. The Fellow will receive an annual stipend of $20,000 and
tuition remission for the LL.M. program. The Fellow would take 6-7 credits per
semester allowing time for part-time work at the Center. The Fellow will
further the work of the Center by pursuing research on issues relating to
energy and sustainable development law and policy, under the direction of the
Center’s Director and the WVU Law faculty associated with the Center. The
Fellow will be expected to generate policy-oriented written work to be
published through the Center and other venues such as law journals. The Fellow
will also assist with projects relating to the Center’s programs, including
organizing conferences and other events, and public education and outreach
efforts. Efforts will be made to match project assignments with the Fellow’s
interest.
Fellowship Qualifications
Candidates should possess a J.D.;
a strong academic record; excellent analytical and writing skills; a demonstrated
interest and background in energy, sustainability or environmental law and
policy; and admission to the LL.M. program at West Virginia University College
of Law (application for LL.M. admission can occur concurrently with the
