Introduction
In order to foster outstanding environmental management professionals, students are required to participate in lengthy internship studies. Based on practical experience gained outside of the university, the student presents an innovative master’s thesis and gains professional skills. After completing the master’s degree, the student may continue on to the doctoral program in order to obtain advanced professional skills or may choose to work for national or local government organizations, international organizations, at environment-linked departments of industries, environment-related industries, environment-related NGOs, among others.
The curriculum also fosters outstanding researchers. Students are engaged in academic research in the specific field of his/her major, as well as in interdisciplinary course work, in order to gain the ability to open academic frontiers related to global and/or local environmental issues. After completing the master’s degree, the student may continue on to the Doctoral Program in Global Environmental Studies to obtain advanced academic research skills at the international level, or may choose to work for environment-related research institutions or other organizations.
