Climate Change, Mitigation and Adaption - Specialization
Climate Change - Mitigation and Adaption
The increasing amounts of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere lead to a changing climate with severe impacts on ecosystems and urban areas. Mitigating greenhouse gas emissions and adapting to climate change impacts are urgent tasks for our society.

Specializations are merely recommended ways of choosing the courses in the curriculum. Applicants are not admitted to a specialization but to the programme and it is possible to choose among all the courses in the curriculum following the directions given. However, if a specialization has been fulfilled the title of the specialization may be added to the diploma.
