49 PhD programmes in Ecology in Europe

The Doctoral Program in Ecology and Evolution (DPEE) from the University of Bern aims to facilitate the acquisition of knowledge and scientific methods through courses, seminars and workshops to which foreign experts will be invited. 

The Life Sciences programme from Masaryk University aims to educate students in the field of life sciences and to prepare them as highly qualified specialists for scientific activities. The introductory part of the study concentrates on deepening theoretical and practical knowledge. 

Your research Ecology and Evolutionary Biology degree is bespoke at the University of Nottingham, and allows you to choose your own area of interest to research, under the title of your choosing.

The Terrestrial Ecology programme offered by Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona develops advanced research expertise in ecosystems, biodiversity, and responses to global environmental change.

Understanding the ecology and evolution of life on Earth is a fundamental research challenge and of central importance for most areas of the environmental sciences. This Ecology and Evolution programme is offered at The University of Manchester.

Climate Change and Ecosystem Services research at The Open University UK seeks to monitor and quantify climate-related change for a range of Earth’s systems, while increasing predictive capability through the development of Earth system models of intermediate complexity.

The structured doctoral programme "Ecology and Environmental Research" (PEER) constitutes the training of doctoral students in ecology and environmental research, a designated focus area of the University of Bayreuth. 

The Centre for Applied Entomology and Parasitology (CAEP) at the Keele University is primarily situated within the buildings of the School of Life Sciences (Huxley Building) and the School of Chemical and Physical Sciences (Lennard-Jones Laboratories). 

Biogeochemistry and Ecosystem Ecology research at The Open University UK focuses on Earth’s terrestrial ecosystems and biosphere-atmosphere exchange of greenhouse gases. Studies undertaken range from investigations of the smallest microbial unit to whole catchment ecosystems and across a wide range of latitudes, with a developing focus on tropical ecosystems.
