CIEL helped found the International Environmental Law Program at American University Washington College of Law and maintains a close advisory role with the WCL International Legal Studies Program (ILSP). ILSP was established in 1980 in response to a growing demand for lawyers trained in international law. As one of the top international LL.M. programs in the United States, the ILSP offers a comprehensive education in international environmental law, human rights, comparative law, and transnational investment, trade, and development. The program incorporates a rich array of international law courses and seminars, experiential learning, and special events offering invaluable opportunities to interact with international attorneys, diplomats, business leaders, and policy makers.

Current enrollment is approximately 160 students from over sixty countries, under the instruction of 24 full-time faculty members, including the director, Professor Daniel Bradlow, and 40 adjunct faculty members who are all recognized experts and leading practitioners in the field.
