Special features regarding teaching in the bachelor's degree programme

Master's degree with specialisation in Nature Conservation, practically-oriented courses, partnerships with companies in the region. Significant involvement of the many non-university institutions (Max Planck Institutes, Fraunhofer Institutes, Leibniz Institutes) in teaching, especially in the master's degree programmes with jointly appointed institute boards. Very good modern large-scale equipment (e.g. analytics, microscopy), which is also used in teaching.

Special features regarding the international orientation

Master's courses in English, cooperation with international graduate schools (e.g. IMPRS) in the region, planned exchange with Australian universities and universities in Venezuela.

Exchange universities for stay abroads

Université de Montpellier, Frankreich; Università degli Studi di Roma 'La Sapienza', Italien; Università degli Studi di Palermo, Italien; Université Grenoble Alpes, Frankreich; Uniwersytet Wroclawski, Polen; Università degli Studi di Cagliari, Italien; Università degli Studi di Genova, Italien; Türkisch-Deutsche Universität (TDU), Türkei; Marmara Üniversitesi, Türkei; Université de Rennes 1, Frankreich

Other special features

Very good interdisciplinary cooperation with neighbouring institutes (chemistry, physics and astronomy, nutritional sciences, mathematics), which is evidenced by secondary memberships at the Institute for Biochemistry and Biology.
