Earth Sciences: Earth System Science (track)

Are you interested in the functioning of the Earth System across diverse spatial and temporal scales, from global to local and from millions of years to the present? In the Earth System Science track you will investigate the interplay between earth surface processes, such as erosion, river dynamics, and ecosystems. You also will have the opportunity to explore the impact of human activities, including mining, deforestation, and the effects of nature-based solutions.

Study Programme

The Earth System Science (ESS) track studies the interactions between senvironmental, anthropogenic and ecological systems. You will learn to assess these systems across an array of spatial and temporal scales using state of the art technology in remote sensing, field survey and laboratory techniques. The ESS track also contains components of professional skill development, research, writing, and course work.
