The Department of TCE is involved in the BSc program on Biology, the BSc program on Future Planet Studies, the MSc program on Biological Sciences and the MSc program on Earth Sciences. We are particularly interested in educating a new generation of scientists with mathematical and computational skills. We engage in interdisciplinary teaching programs at the interface of earth sciences and ecology with additional focus on mathematical andcomputational methodologies such as GIS and Remote Sensing technology, modelling, and statistics methodologies such as GIS and Remote Sensing technology, modelling, and statistics.​ 

MSc and BSc projects

There are many opportunities to get involved in the research of TCE staff members by doing a BSc or MSc thesis projects.
