Applications are open for  the ‘Landscape Ecology and Nature Conservation’ Masters programme at the University of Greifswald with the DAAD EPOS scholarship programme

In this research-oriented and strongly transdisciplinary program you will acquire in-depth knowledge of the contents and methods of ‘Landscape Ecology and Nature Conservation’ and develop competencies for solving complex research tasks independently.

The program, which mainly covers natural science (environment and ecology), is supplemented by contents from the fields of the humanities and economics, in particular through the integration of landscape economics and environmental ethics. A substantial proportion of elective modules allow for high individuality and flexibility of your study content and study schedules.

The programme has a research-oriented character, so that you are able to plan, realise, and interpret complex research tasks. Furthermore, you will learn to analyse and evaluate problems of landscape ecology, ecosystems or nature conservation from different points of view.
