Program Description

Europe has a long history of intensive use of natural resources and lessons on misuse and overuse of land and water resources. This has forced Europeans to pay strong attention to environmental deterioration and ecosystem vulnerability. Europe is therefore at the cutting edge with respect to environmental research, its use in monitoring, control, legislation, policy and management actions, and development of environmental technology.

This programme, which is a collaboration between four renowned European universities, gives you in-depth knowledge about the environment and the sustainable use of natural resources. All this studied with an international perspective based on environmental planning, management, assessment, research and sustainable development.

The programme has six different specialisations to choose from of which three are available at SLU: water resources, soil resources and land use and environmental management. You will study your first year at one university and your second year at another, giving you a Master’s degree from both universities.

Attracting students from all over the world, the EnvEuro programme will also give you the opportunity to build up a large network of contacts for the future. With a double Master's degree in environmental science, you will be able to work as an environmental science expert at universities, in governmental agencies, the private sector or NGO:s either in your home country or overseas. You will also be well equipped to continue your studies towards a PhD for a career as researcher or university lecturer.

What makes the international Master's programme EnvEuro unique?

  • You will earn a double degree in environmental science, with a European perspective.
  • You will study at two top universities in Europe, with a large selection of courses to tailor your studies.
  • You will get a large international network for your continued professional career.

About the School

At SLU, we engage students in some of the most important issues facing the 21st century, such as global warming, the food crisis, and our dependence on non-renewable energy.

The teaching style at SLU promotes critical thinking. As a student, you are expected to question beliefs that are often taken for granted and we also expect you to question what you learn. Debating with classmates and lecturers is accepted and welcomed. SLU’s teaching staff crave academic excellence and are focused on producing a highly employable student body. Communication skills, the ability to work in a team and solve problems, an awareness of the commercial landscape and work experience are just some of the qualities that make our graduates employable.

To strengthen your ability to build a career in an increasingly competitive job market, as a student at SLU you are encouraged to learn through experience.

You study real-life situations, take a hands-on approach to problem-solving, and make valuable contact with the business sector. Lectures, tutorials, laboratory work, fieldwork, group projects, and independent study are just some of the teaching methods used here.

Assessment procedures also vary depending on the course and can include written assignments and examinations, individual and group projects, laboratory reports, and oral presentations. Here at SLU we are committed to developing the internationalization aspect of our syllabus, network, and student experience.

Global perspectives have been integrated into the design, development, and presentation of all programs and courses. We welcome students from all over the world and by offering students the chance to make important international connections, we are increasing our students’ global employability.
