Contents
The programme consists of three semesters of advanced studies plus the Master’s thesis. It provides advanced training in landscape, community, evolutionary and plant ecology, as well as conservation biology.

Top priority is given to project- and team-oriented work. In numerous field, lab and computer classes students learn about the interrelations between biodiversity, soils, climate, and land use. The programme furthermore has a strong focus on quantitative ecology, notably on statistical ecology and the design of ecological experiments and studies. It also offers courses in ecological modelling and forecasting, geographical informations systems (GIS) and remote sensing.

In addition to this core programme, students can chose from a wide range of elective modules such as animal and microbial ecology, limnology, population genetics, soil science, agricultural science and global change biology. As part of the Master programme, students can also study for one semester at another university abroad.

Master’s thesis and study projects can be conducted in ongoing research projects in Germany, Europe and across the world.

Modules

Semester 1+2:
5 compulsory modules (37,5 credits)
- Landscape Ecology
- Community and Evolutionary Ecology
- Conservation Biology
- Plant Ecology
- Intensive Course Landscape Ecology

3 semi-elective modules (22,5 credits)

Objectives
Graduates have the knowledge and skills required to do fundamental research in ecology and biodiversity science, and to address novel challenges posed by global change in a scientifically sound and creative way.

In this programme, students acquire the ecological understanding, the quantitative skills, and the practical experience necessary to study ecological dynamics in changing environments. This enables them to assess environmental change effects on biodiversity and ecosystems, and to develop concepts for the sustainable use of natural resources.


Career Perspectives
Graduates are qualified for jobs that require ecological understanding, quantitative skills, analytical problem solving and the ability to work independently.

Possible fields of work include:
- research in ecology and biodiversity science
- agencies and organisations dealing with nature conservation and environmental
  protection at a national and international level
- companies and organizations working on sustainable resource use, geographical
  analysis and landscape planning
- science communication and environmental education
