Master in Environmental Sciences
Major in Biogeochemistry and Pollutant Dynamics
Students in our major analyse the distribution, transformation and transport of natural and anthropogenic compounds in aquatic and terrestrial systems. Students obtain a deeper process-level understanding to assess and predict the fate of elements and chemical compounds. The study program contains courses and lectures arranged in the following five modules:
- Biogeochemical Processes
- Applications
- Methods and Tools: Modelling Courses
- Methods and Tools: Field and Lab Courses
- Term Paper
A good overview highlighting our offer, the study program structure, possible carreers, and personal statements can be found in the Download Brochure of the Major in Biogeochemistry and Pollutant Dynamics (PDF, 2.7 MB).
