EPOS scholarships by DAAD for the 2024 International Joint M.Sc. in Geography of Environmental Risks and Human Security Programme are open for application now! Scholarship deadline: 15 December 2023

Overview:

As a joint programme offered by the Department of Geography at the University of Bonn and the United Nations University in Bonn, this course provides a unique combination of advanced conceptual and applied engagements within the field of environmental risks and human security in an international context.

The main purpose of the two-year Master of Science programme is to provide postgraduate students with detailed knowledge, critical understanding, strategies and the tools required to take an interdisciplinary approach towards environmental risks and human security. The Master’s programme addresses theoretical and methodological debates in geography to better understand the complex emergence of environmental risks and natural hazards, their implications for human-nature relations (vulnerability, resilience, adaptation) and how to deal with them in practice.

Requirements:

Applicants must possess a first higher education qualification (Bachelor’s degree or equivalent) in Geography or a related/relevant academic field. Out of all achieved academic performances (Bachelor’s, Master’s, additional coursework, etc.) the majority of attended courses (as reflected in your transcripts) must be related to the three following areas:

  1. Human Geography and Social Sciences with a focus on spatial patterns, society, development;
  2. Science methodology and empirical research methods;
  3. Physical Geography, Geosciences and Environmental Sciences with a focus on Earth System Science.

Applicants should also have at least two years of related professional experience after the first degree (bachelor) at the time of application.

Deadline: 15 December 2023
