The importance of protection and conservation of the environment and sustainable, ecologically-sound management of natural resources has been recognized globally. With the goal of increasing educational options for those interested in learning about the sustainable management of the environment, we are now offering a new Master of Science degree in Environmental Management (MScEM). The new degree addresses sensitivity to human rights, public views on social, political, and economic issues, professional and humane ethics, and diverse values in the sustainable management of the environment. The research-based education is largely self-motivated, guided by supervisors, and based on thorough familiarization with pertinent literature, experimentation, data collection, analysis, and interpretation of results. The thesis produced by the students is subject to review and defense.

Applicants should hold an undergraduate in science, forestry, environmental studies, social ecology or the equivalent from a recognized university with a minimum 3.0 (B) average.
