The Faculty of Biology of the LMU Munich offers a comprehensive two-year-Master’s program in Evolution, Ecology and Systematics for graduates with a background in biology (B.Sc. in biology or equivalent).
The master's program provides students with a broad biological background in the three main areas “Ecology”, “Evolution” and “Systematics” and trains them to become critically thinking scientists. During the program, students become familiar with the many techniques and approaches that are used in the disciplines of evolution, ecology and systematics. These include modern field experiments, the use of natural history collections, mathematical modeling, data management and modern genetic/genomic methods.
The program is strongly research-oriented, taught in English and offers many innovative elements such as integrated skills courses and individual research trainings. Students gain not only extensive research experience that will prepare them for a PhD program, but also valuable technical and communication skills that will prepare you for a career outside of academia.
