Ecology:
Theoretical Ecology, 120 credits
Theoretical ecology encompasses almost all aspects of ecology - from genes to ecosystems, from population dynamics to evolutionary biology and has a more quantitative approach to ecological problems. This means that there is emphasis on the underlying, often mathematical, theories of ecology and evolution. The master's programme in Theoretical ecology serves as an outstanding preparation for university research, but also for research and development in many areas outside the university.
