Learning outcomes

With a master's degree in Culture Environment and Sustainability we aim to:

• provide students with a thorough theoretical understanding of the challenge of sustainable development, with an emphasis on sociopolitical, cultural and ideological perspectives
• give students advanced insight into the complexities of interdisciplinary research
• train students in philosophical argumentation, historical knowledge and cultural understanding of environmental problems
• use the ongoing case studies provided by SUM researchers to provide practical benefits to those who will be involved in research and policy in the future.

The Master Thesis is an independent piece of work. You learn to formulate academic research questions, find relevant material for your research project, critically relate to sources, and to process large quantities of information through scientific methods.

The topic for your thesis should be connected to one of SUM's research areas
