    Environmental Science

  • Field of study
    • Target group Students from a wide range of Bachelor’s degree programmes (see admission requirements) who are interested in the analysis of environmental systems as well as their system-based, mathematical and computer-aided modelling and who would like to acquire tools beyond their specialist focus in order to analyse and regulate complex systems.
    • kind of Master course according to the KMK consecutive
    • Main instruction language German
    • Further language(s) English
    • Annotation of the Higher Education Institution The Master’s degree course "Environmental Systems and Resource Management" focuses on environmental issues, which are analysed and addressed using a systems-based approach. The degree programme offers a wide range of methods for addressing issues across disciplines, analysing the dynamics of complex systems and identifying solutions, whereby natural and social science approaches complement one another. Mathematical and computer-aided methods are used for quantitative modelling. A key feature of the course is the opportunity for direct participation in environmentally relevant research projects.

      The Master’s degree offers very good career prospects in business, public authorities and associations. The interdisciplinary programme prepares students for careers in project management, in management consulting, in political consulting or in the area of environmental management in the context of environmental aspects and/or the analysis of complex systems in other areas such as transport, the economy or society.
      With the expertise they acquire, graduates can, for example, contribute to solutions to important issues such as addressing the consequences of climate change or biodiversity loss, the sustainable development of socio-ecological systems or shaping the transformation of agricultural systems. This includes areas such as environmental protection, landscape planning, planning of adaptation strategies and transformation processes, strategy development (e.g. energy systems), risk analyses and risk assessment (e.g. of chemicals or financial products) and traffic and logistics planning.
      The Master’s degree opens up very good opportunities for an academic career (doctorate) and, with appropriate course planning and the fulfilment of the relevant requirements, offers admission to any possible doctoral programme.

    Interdisciplinary research

    The outstanding research undertaken at the University is only possible due to close interdisciplinary cooperation:

    • The AI Campus is the result of many years of specialization in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
    • The Center of Cellular Nanoanalytics Osnabrück (CellNanOs) interdisciplinary research center develops new approaches in modern cell biology.
    • The Institute of Migration Research and Intercultural Studies (IMIS) explores the aspects of spatial mobility and intercultural experiences.
    • Early childhood education and development is addressed at the Center for Early Childhood Development and Education Research (CEDER) research center.
    • A beacon of interdisciplinary cooperation is the Institute of Cognitive Science (IKW), which addresses issues of higher cognitive functions.
    • At the Institute of Environmental Systems Research (USF), research is conducted on changes in environmental systems.
    • The European Legal Studies Institute, one of Europe’s most important research facilities in the field of comparative law and the harmonization of law, is firmly anchored at Osnabrück University.


    The “UOS 2020” concept for the future, featuring six key research strands, paves the way for the development of the University in years to come.
