Academic
Research
B.Sc. and M.Sc. level students in environmental
management have to carry out research in the fourth
and eighth semesters respectively for the completion
of their degree. During their research, students are
provided with all the facilities including research
supervisors. On the basis of the interests of students,
SchEMS identifies institutions and agencies (NGOs, INGOs,
and agencies), which can provide internships for periods
of 6 to 12 months in carrying out researches for those
particular agencies. The students develop their work
