Ecology and Sustainability

Part of: Biology - master
Campus Tromsø

One of most significant challenges facing society in the 21st century is to ensure ecological and environmental sustainability of our planet. Climate change, resource depletion, ecosystem degradation and loss of biological diversity are complex environmental problems that require advanced skills and tools to analyze and solve. This discipline is for students that want to learn how ecology and sustainability science can contribute to ecosystem-based management, adaptation and decision making about sustainability from local to global scales. The discipline is also relevant for students seeking an academic career as agents of change for the green transition and sustainable management of ecosystems in the government or the business sector.

This study programme requires compulsory attendance to the introductory meeting. See this web page for more information.
