Overview
Features
- The Environmental and Climate Science programme from Lund University normally takes four years of full-time studies, of which approximately one year is devoted to courses and seminars and three years are devoted to research.
- The aim of the education is to develop scientific competence and interdisciplinary research across departments and disciplines within the university and society.
Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- Environmental science is the scientific study of environmental problems caused by humanity, including climate change.
- It is based on a fundamental understanding of natural processes and how they are affected by human activity and therefore has a broad base in traditional subjects such as biology, chemistry, physics, geology, and physical geography.
- It also includes studies of relevant measures and strategies to address environmental problems.
- This means that the research is based on an interdisciplinary approach in collaboration across traditional subject borders.
