About the Program - Natural Resources and Environmental Law | UNM School of Law Responding to a Changing Environment New Mexico has a stunning variety of natural features and scenic beauty. Its high mountain ranges are laced with streams that rush to the Rio Grande, which connects the state's northern traditional towns and villages to its Native American pueblos, central urban areas and finally to the vast Chihuahuan desert that borders Mexico. This is a place that is resource-rich, but ecologically fragile. For many years, extractive natural resources, such as timber, hard rock minerals, coal and oil and gas were a major focus in the state, along with the management of scarce water resources. Unique Relationships Under the guidance of a faculty active in natural resources and environmental law, students are exposed to a rich depth of issues arising from the unique relationships among the state’s 23 Indian tribes and governments of all levels. Dual Degree Students can earn a dual graduate degree in law and water resources. Opportunities for Students Contact Us
