The Stockholm Resilience Centre in Sweden offers a 2-year Master’s Programme on Social-Ecological Resilience for Sustainable Development (SERSD), starting in autumn (northern hemisphere) every year.
The programme aims to enhance students’ knowledge of the complex interactions between ecological and social dynamics in the context of change and uncertainty.
In the 2-year Master’s programme students are introduced to multiple research approaches and methods for studying coupled social and ecological systems. The programme is designed with an emphasis on resilience – the ability to deal with change and continue to develop – and focuses on using systems-based methods to develop new approaches to the governance and management of social-ecological systems. Students will be trained to conduct problem-driven transdisciplinary environmental research.
The deadline for applications is 15 January 2017.
