The Erasmus Mundus Masters Course "European Master in Applied Ecology" (EMMC-EMAE), with the support of European commission, plans to form specialists able to develop and lead ecological projects throughout the world by providing them with a wide range of competences and skills, completed by a professional specialization in one of several leading fields of Ecology (Conservation, Toxicology, Functional ecosystem dynamics, Evolutionary ecology, Environmental sciences). This course is offered in partnership with the University of East Anglia (UK), University of Poitiers (France), University of Coimbra (Portugal), and Christian-Albrechts-Universitat in Kiel (Germany). A number of scholarships are offered. Deadline for applications: 8 January 2012. 

"The European Master in Applied Ecology is a rare opportunity to learn from three universities (or even four) and a great excuse to travel around Europe. Doing my second year at UEA has really helped me redefine a better version of myself as a researcher and scientist, particularly in the field of conservation ecology. It's an intense two years, but I've established great contacts in my field and have met really awesome people from around the world who I am proud to call my friends."
