What can past and present conditions tell us about the future? How can we use Earth system knowledge to effectively address global challenges such as climate change? As a Master's student of Earth Sciences, you will learn to find sustainable solutions for present and future challenges regarding our planet and climate.
Understanding the Earth's system is essential to tackle climate change. You will study natural processes and cycles of the Earth's system within and among rock, soil, water, organisms and air.
