Study with us

The Department of Ecology, Environment and Plant Sciences (DEEP) offers a wide range of courses on all levels, including Bachelor’s, Master’s, and PhD. All undergraduate programs and courses in biology are organized and managed by BIG (department of Biology Education), but the teaching itself is conducted by teachers and researchers from the Biology Departments at Stockholm University.

 

Courses

On BIGs website you can find necessary information about course content, structure and entry requirements, and how to apply for courses or programs.

We also offer master degree projects and occasionally bachelor degree projects. See below if there is any subject that engages you and contact the supervisor if interested.

Do you want to do your master degree project abroad? One way is to apply for a SIDA-funded Minor Field Studies scholarship, which you can read more about below.

 

Master degree projects

We offer master degree projects in plant physiology, marine biology and ecology. Apply for the master degree projects by contacting the supervisor for the project.

Plant Physiology

We offer master degree projects in Plant Physiology.

Marine Biology

We offer master degree projects Marine Biology.

Ecology

We offer master degree projects in Ecology.

Bachelor degree projects

We occiasionally offer bachelor degree projects and in this case, they are listed below. Apply for the bachelor degree projects by contacting the supervisor for the project.

Minor Field Studies

Do you wish to collect data for your degree project/essay abroad? Stockholm University students have the opportunity to apply for the Minor Field Studies (MFS) programme funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida). The scholarship gives you the possibility to spend 8 weeks in a developing country to conduct a field study for your bachelor's or master's degree project/essay. You need a supervisor at Stockholm University and a contact person in the host country that can assist with practical matters.
