Programme structure

M.Sc. in Environmental and Resource Management requires two years of full time study. The curriculum is built up upon a quarter structure, which means that new courses begin four times a year. The entire programme is therefore 8 quarters in all and each quarter constitutes15 ECTS.

All compulsory courses are taking place at the first 4 quarters (the first year) constituting 60 ECTS in all. At the 5th and 6th quarters you will be able to take elective courses, constituting 30 ECTS, while the 7th and 8th quarters are intended for writing the master thesis also constituting 30 ECTS.

You can read more about the compulsory courses and the electives offered in Esbjerg. You will find the information needed at the link "Course Descriptions" below.
