Master's Programme in Paleobiology - PANGEA

Education facts

Code: TPA2M

The Master's Programme in paleobiology - PANGEA will enable you to learn about the interdependency of Earth Systems and gain advanced skills in specific areas within Earth Sciences. Explore climate change from the perspectives of Earth processes occurring in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, lithosphere and biosphere. Find a balance between using and preserving Earth's resources and reducing the environmental impact for a healthy sustainable future. The combination of breadth and depth is a distinguishing feature of our Master's Programme in Paleobiology. This reflects the scientific profile of the department, which focuses on research into climate, development of life, natural hazards, natural resources, energy and sustainable development. The need for professional Earth scientists has increased considerably during the last few years due to growing awareness of environmental issues and the increasing demands for natural resources. The programme is an Erasmus Mundus joint Master's degree programme of Uppsala University (Sweden), University of Lille (France), University of Minho (Portugal) and the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (Greece). The language of instruction is English.
