Overview

Teaching on this doctoral programme in environmental sciences is in English. The university's Senate agreed in January 2017 to lengthen the degree from three to four years, with the four-year route beginning in 2017/2018; anyone already on the shorter route finishes it under the original terms. Doctoral work may focus on basic processes in nature or on better technologies for reducing pollution, including new methods to detect contaminants. Besides technical content, candidates can investigate how human activity affects the natural world and quality of life, and consider the effects of environmental change in future decades.
