Read more about the programme under Course overview.

Globalisation means that local ecosystem management in a country is affected by social, economic, and ecological drivers at different scales; from local to global.

Aspects of governance at different scales are thus important for problem solving within complex adaptive systems.  Complex adaptive systems are explored as interconnected dynamic systems of humans and ecosystems.

The programme aims to enhance the student´s knowledge of the complex interactions between ecosystem dynamics and human activities at different scales; particularly ecosystem management in the context of change and uncertainty.

Students are introduced to different research approaches and methods for studying coupled social and ecological systems.
