Over deze opleiding
In the track Future Planet Ecosystem Science of the Master's programme Earth Sciences you will learn quantitative methods and gain an in-depth understanding of concepts of geo-ecological systems.
Human impact on our planet has reached unprecedented proportions. This severely affects biodiversity, geo-ecosystems and the services they provide to humanity. We urgently need an in-depth understanding of the functioning of geo-ecosystems, to predict the effects of local and global change (land use change, eutrophication, pollution, climate change) and to successfully manage Earth's systems (e.g. through integrated land management, spatial planning, nature and soil conservation). Only then can we rely on the use of ecosystem services in a sustainable way.
