The programme’s first year consists of four coordinated courses: Fish and Wildlife Census Techniques, Applied Population Ecology, Human Dimensions of Fish and Wildlife Management, and Fish and Wildlife Management. During the second year, the student gets the opportunity to deepen his or her knowledge within a specific research area by writing an individual Master’s thesis (30 or 60 credits (ECTS) project work). Time is also set aside for elective courses, for example in Conservation Biology and Statistics. Teaching activities are diverse and include lectures, exercises, project works, literature studies, seminars and field excursions. In addition to the Department’s teaching personnel, practitioners in the field of fish and wildlife management are involved in the courses at different steps. All courses are given in English and taken one at a time. Admission to the programme means that the student is guaranteed a place on all programme courses provided that the courses are followed and passed.
