MSc Applied Ecology - European Programme

The Erasmus Mundus Masters Course "European Master in Applied Ecology" (EMMC-EMAE), is an exciting programme where students will have the opportunity to develop networks with at least three different University environments and three EU cultures.

With the support of European commission, the course plans to form specialists able to develop and lead ecological projects throughout the world by providing them with a wide range of competences and skills, completed by a professional specialisation in one of several leading fields of Ecology (Conservation, Toxicology, Functional ecosystem dynamics, Evolutionary ecology, Environmental sciences).

Further information about this course is available from the main European Master in Applied Ecology website. The course is offered in partnership with the University of East Anglia (UK), University of Poitiers (France), University of Coimbra (Portugal), and Christian-Albrechts-Universitat in Kiel (Germany).

During the first year of the programme students will attend courses in two different countries.
