Master i plantebiologi for bæredygtig produktion

Lær om patogene mikrober, biologisk mangfoldighed, evolution og bioteknologi i et miljø med førende forskning på verdensplan. Trinvis praktisk og eksperimentel undervisning vil udstyre dig med avancerede laboratoriefærdigheder og -teknikker samt give dig ajourført viden om området.

Dette 2-årige kandidatprogram giver dig mulighed for at få en dybere forståelse af organismers økologi, evolution og mangfoldighed. Master of Science i evolutionær økologi er multidisciplinær og bygger på den studerendes viden om økologi, evolution og organismebiologi for at udforske og værdsætte biologisk mangfoldighed.

I en verden med komplekse miljøproblemer er økologisk forståelse og et systemperspektiv grundlæggende for at finde bæredygtige løsninger. Hvis du er interesseret i naturen og vil tage fat på globale udfordringer, er dette program det rigtige valg.

På vores kandidatuddannelse i marinbiologi lærer du om de rige marine økosystemer i Østersøen og verdenshavene. Programmet sigter mod at give en dybdegående teoretisk baggrund inden for marin økologi sammen med anvendt praktisk træning, for at give dig en række færdigheder og en konkurrencefordel.

Dette program er en fantastisk mulighed for at få en bred uddannelse og udvikle din egen retning. Du kan vælge kurser i biologi, der dækker emner fra celle- og molekylærbiologi til økologi og adfærd. Du kan også udvikle en tværfaglig uddannelse ved at kombinere andre fag, herunder humaniora og samfundsvidenskab.

The Master of Science in aquatic ecology is a program at the advanced level, equivalent to 120 higher education credits. The program is international, multidisciplinary, and oriented towards current topics in aquatic microbiology, marine ecology, and environmental policies

Dette program beskæftiger sig med dyrs adfærd og biologi fra et anvendt perspektiv, herunder problemer forbundet med at holde dyr i fangenskab. Målet er at give de studerende en solid forståelse af teorien og metoder til anvendt etologi.

This Master’s programme provides knowledge on current theories and models of aquatic ecosystems, the relation between watershed, atmosphere, lakes and streams, interactions between humankind and aquatic ecosystems, and water management. Practical training in laboratory and field methodology is also emphasised. Some of the courses contain week-long excursions where practical field studies are conducted; from hypotheses and preparations, via sampling, analysing samples and data, and finally writing a report and performing an oral presentation.

This is an education for students interested in evolutionary and ecological processes at the level of genes, individuals and populations of animals. At the Department of Biology, you will meet teachers who are also researchers in our excellent scientific environment. The research areas stretch from disease resistance in natural populations, host-parasite interactions, diversification dynamics of life throughout evolutionary history, how birds and other animals have adapted to migrate and navigate, evolutionary processes that generate biodiversity, to physiological and ecological mechanisms affecting the balance between reproduction and survival. The programme provides a solid ground for PhD studies but also for employment within consultancy and the public sector.

Kandidatuddannelsen i Applied Computational Science med speciale i biologi vil give dig detaljeret viden om de underliggende metoder med hensyn til biologi. Du vil lære, hvordan du studerer komplekse processer i naturvidenskab, og hvordan Computational Science kan bidrage til vidensudvikling i samfundet.

The general Master’s programme in Biology gives you an opportunity to design a personal study plan. We offer a broad range of courses covering subjects from cell and molecular biology and structure and function to evolution and ecology. We have excellent facilities for laboratory work and for conducting field and indoor experiments. The education is closely connected to the scientific forefront and encourages dialogue and collaboration between students and teachers. This enables students to develop their critical and analytical thinking, which stimulates independence and opportunities to bring forward new ideas. Our courses continuously receive top scores in student evaluations.

This Master's provides deep knowledge about theory in conservation biology, including population dynamics in small populations and heterogeneous landscapes as well as conservation genetics. It provides insight into how habitat loss, habitat conversion and climate change affect biodiversity and how this feeds back on ecosystem services (e.g. pollination or biological control). There is an emphasis on developing a deep understanding of and critically evaluating conservation theory and tools in conservation, and on developing skills that can be of use both in practical conservation work and in research. Conservation biology professionals are needed and employed by governmental agencies, municipalities, non-governmental organisations and private consultancies. The programme also provides a solid ground for PhD studies.

This programme connects fundamental research with its applications and integrates genetics, gene technology, cell biology, molecular biology and molecular biotechnology. The common basis is within molecular genetics, which is the discipline that explains how the information in the genes is expressed and how it can give rise to various traits in an organism. Emphasis is put on genetic mechanisms underlying disease, genetic mapping, molecular genetic techniques and diagnostic methods. Training in entrepreneurship and processes of innovation and commercialisation in the molecular biotechnology field provides a fundamental base for careers in biotechnology and the pharmaceutical industry. A majority of the graduated students continue with PhD studies, often within the biomedical research field.
