Este programa é uma grande oportunidade para ganhar uma formação alargada e desenvolver a sua própria direção. Pode escolher disciplinas de biologia que abrangem temas desde a biologia celular e molecular à ecologia e comportamento. Pode também desenvolver uma educação multidisciplinar, combinando outras disciplinas, nomeadamente as humanidades e as ciências sociais.

Este programa trata do comportamento animal e da biologia de uma perspectiva aplicada, incluindo problemas associados à manutenção de animais em cativeiro. O objetivo é fornecer aos alunos uma compreensão sólida da teoria e dos métodos de etologia aplicada.

The Master of Science in aquatic ecology is a program at the advanced level, equivalent to 120 higher education credits. The program is international, multidisciplinary, and oriented towards current topics in aquatic microbiology, marine ecology, and environmental policies

This Master’s programme provides knowledge on current theories and models of aquatic ecosystems, the relation between watershed, atmosphere, lakes and streams, interactions between humankind and aquatic ecosystems, and water management. Practical training in laboratory and field methodology is also emphasised. Some of the courses contain week-long excursions where practical field studies are conducted; from hypotheses and preparations, via sampling, analysing samples and data, and finally writing a report and performing an oral presentation.

This is an education for students interested in evolutionary and ecological processes at the level of genes, individuals and populations of animals. At the Department of Biology, you will meet teachers who are also researchers in our excellent scientific environment. The research areas stretch from disease resistance in natural populations, host-parasite interactions, diversification dynamics of life throughout evolutionary history, how birds and other animals have adapted to migrate and navigate, evolutionary processes that generate biodiversity, to physiological and ecological mechanisms affecting the balance between reproduction and survival. The programme provides a solid ground for PhD studies but also for employment within consultancy and the public sector.

O Programa de Mestrado em Ciências Computacionais Aplicadas com especialização em Biologia lhe dará conhecimento detalhado sobre os métodos subjacentes em relação à biologia. Você aprenderá como estudar processos complexos em ciências naturais e como a Ciência Computacional pode contribuir para a evolução do conhecimento na sociedade.

The general Master’s programme in Biology gives you an opportunity to design a personal study plan. We offer a broad range of courses covering subjects from cell and molecular biology and structure and function to evolution and ecology. We have excellent facilities for laboratory work and for conducting field and indoor experiments. The education is closely connected to the scientific forefront and encourages dialogue and collaboration between students and teachers. This enables students to develop their critical and analytical thinking, which stimulates independence and opportunities to bring forward new ideas. Our courses continuously receive top scores in student evaluations.

This Master's provides deep knowledge about theory in conservation biology, including population dynamics in small populations and heterogeneous landscapes as well as conservation genetics. It provides insight into how habitat loss, habitat conversion and climate change affect biodiversity and how this feeds back on ecosystem services (e.g. pollination or biological control). There is an emphasis on developing a deep understanding of and critically evaluating conservation theory and tools in conservation, and on developing skills that can be of use both in practical conservation work and in research. Conservation biology professionals are needed and employed by governmental agencies, municipalities, non-governmental organisations and private consultancies. The programme also provides a solid ground for PhD studies.

This programme connects fundamental research with its applications and integrates genetics, gene technology, cell biology, molecular biology and molecular biotechnology. The common basis is within molecular genetics, which is the discipline that explains how the information in the genes is expressed and how it can give rise to various traits in an organism. Emphasis is put on genetic mechanisms underlying disease, genetic mapping, molecular genetic techniques and diagnostic methods. Training in entrepreneurship and processes of innovation and commercialisation in the molecular biotechnology field provides a fundamental base for careers in biotechnology and the pharmaceutical industry. A majority of the graduated students continue with PhD studies, often within the biomedical research field.
