Admission Requirements

The M.Sc. programme is open to holders of a degree in exact or applied sciences equivalent to at least 4 years of university studies (eg. B.Sc. in geology, geography, chemistry, botany, biology, B.Sc. in agriculture, environmental sciences, civil engineering, education, ...). Holders of a specialized degree in physical land resources (e.g. M.Sc. Soil Science) can apply for exemption of the courses of the first year in the master programme and thus be admitted directly to the second year of the M.Sc. programme. The equivalency of degrees will be evaluated by the Academic Board, who is also responsible for the selection of the candidates and takes all decisions in cases not foreseen in the current regulations. As all lectures are given in English, the participants are expected to be fluent in both written and spoken English.
