About the programme

BioGeoSciences at the University of Koblenz is a research-oriented Master of Science that combines biology and geography. It runs for four semesters on campus, and you can start in the summer or the winter semester. You gain knowledge in conservation biology, water management, biodiversity, landscape ecology, geoecology and physical geography. The compulsory part is seven modules taught in English, worth 48 ECTS, including a research internship. In the large elective area, worth 42 ECTS, you choose seven of 20 German and English modules and set your own focus, for example in tropical ecology, aquatic or terrestrial ecology, regional development, or people and the environment. Excursions, field and lab exercises, seminars and small-group case studies make up a large share of teaching, and a semester abroad fits in easily. It suits graduates who want environmental work or a later doctorate.
