Dep. of Physical Geography and ecosystem science Master Programmes STARTING FALL 2015

5 PROGRAMMES Physical Geography and Ecosystems Analysis Helena Eriksson Geomatics Helena Eriksson Atmospheric Science and Biogeochemical Cycles Harry Lankreijer Geo-information Science and Earth Observation and Management (GEM) Petter Pilesjö Geographical Information Systems (iGEON) David Tenenbaum

REQUIREMENTS (to start) Physical Geography and Ecosystems Analysis: A scientific first level degree comprising at least 180 higher education credits in physical geography, geology, geoscience, biology/ecology, physics, agronomy, forestry, environmental science or the equivalent, or a foreign degree with an equivalent/similar specialisation. English 6/English Course B. Geomatics: A first-cycle degree in Science or Engineering of at least 180 higher education credits is required. Examples of relevant scientific first-cycle degrees are Bachelor of Science in Physical Geography, Mathematics or Computer Science. From technical colleges, specialisations in land surveying, community planning, civil engineering, ecosystems analysis or similar are relevant. English 6/English Course B. ABS: A scientific first level degree in Physical Geography or Physics or the equivalent, comprising at least 180 higher education credits, is required for admission to the programme. There are specific admission requirements for individual courses on the programme. English 6/English Course B.

No Bachelor degree yet? Courses at Master level (advanced courses) as ”stand alone” courses (req. 90 credits) Why? BE AWARE!!! No guarantee that you will be admitted to courses Tell your study advisor if you plan to do this!

REQUIREMENTS (to graduate) General The Bachelor’s degree Courses corresponding to 120 credits At least 45 credits of advanced courses within the relevant subject No more than 30 credits at basic level Specific courses that are required for each programme
