Profile
The Master’s Programme in Applied Environmental Science at Halmstad University focuses on natural conservation, water resources, environmental health and assessments as well as sustainable management of natural resources. The courses address future environmental challenges from different perspectives where ecological and environmental knowledge and green innovations are the tools towards a sustainable future. A central issue in this programme is how scientific results can be applied to solve environmental problems by forming management procedures combatting the adverse effects of human disturbances such as climate change, chemical pollution and eutrophication. Thus, scientific knowledge and applications will lead to a better environment in the future, locally and globally.During the year you will gain insight in environmental management projects with examples from all over the world. Courses include both theoretical and practical tasks and many subjects are thoroughly discussed during series of seminars including ongoing research projects lead by senior scientists within environmental science. You are expected to devote a large part of your time to working on case studies, individually or in small groups. Finally, you will carry out your Master’s thesis which will comprise 15 ECTS credits. It may be performed within a research project at Halmstad University or can consist of an extensive literature study analysing in depth a subject or answering a question related to an environmental issue. This can be an environmental issue of specific importance e.g. in your home country.
