- Description/content
- The "Master of Science in Environmental Sciences" programme at the RPTU Kaiserslautern-Landau (on the Landau campus) is an interdisciplinary programme combining concepts of environmental chemistry, geoecology and applied ecology, and it includes social sciences and environmental economics.
The Master of Science in Environmental Sciences is a research-oriented programme. The goal of the programme is to develop students' depth of understanding and expertise and advanced methodological skills in the sub-areas of environmental science across different scales from molecules to the landscape. Human activities are considered as ecosystem components. Graduates are expected to gain in-depth, job-related soft skills, experience interdisciplinary teamwork and be proficient at communication (presentation and publication) in order to find solutions to complex, multidisciplinary problems.
Students have the opportunity to choose to study the MSc Environmental Sciences as a dual degree programme with Brno University of Technology (Environmental Sciences and Engineering).
