The course provides knowledge about population processes and interactions in ecological communities. Through this work, you will gain an understanding of ecological processes related to, for example, population dynamics, interactions between plants and animals, plants and microbes, predators and their prey, as well as conservation biology.

During the course you are trained in addressing ecological and evolutionary problems associated with interactions and population processes. This project course allows in-depth study of a specific topic within the field.
