Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are able to analyse, assess and communicate functional ecological relationships at the scale of individuals to ecosystems.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students have advanced knowledge in the field of landscape ecology and can apply their knowledge in practice.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students have an understanding of ecosystematic processes in aquatic systems - especially interactions with the atmosphere and terrestrial habitats. They are able to apply suitable investigative methods to generate data and are able to independently evaluate and present their results.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are able to put their basic theoretic knowledge in evolutionary ecology in practice in experimental research in aquatic ecology.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are familiar with the most important concepts and problems of fish ecology and can put their knowledge into practice.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students haven an extensive overview of the ecological conditions and the variety of ways organisms acclimatize in alpine freshwaters. They understand their sensitivity to current risks like e.g. climate change.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are able to analyse the biology, ecology and biodiversity of alpine habitats and their animals and to understand them in the context of biodiversity crisis and climate change.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students understand biogeochemical processes and relationships in soils and are able to assess soils with regards to their different functions.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are able to independently carry out population and conservation-genetic analysis corresponding to the current state of research in molecular ecology and to analyse, evaluate and communicate the generated data.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students understand the methodical and conceptual basics of the molecular analysis of feeding relations, of molecular identification and of DNA Barcoding and have a command of diagnostic molecular working techniques. They are able to summarise and present as well as critically analyse subject-related original scientific publications.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are able to understand and analyse complex ecological interaction between biosphere and atmosphere and are able to apply their knowledge in practice.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are able to use ecological models in practice and to interpret the results.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students recognize environmental problems in stagnant water. They command specific methods for evaluating anthropogenic influences based on the EU water framework directive and retrospective analyses.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are familiar with basic theoretical and methodological concepts of man-environment-relationships and can apply their knowledge for finding answers to actual ecological problems in the outdoors.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students understand processes of nature and water protection and the application of EU-conservation guidelines and are able to put their knowledge in a concrete project in practice (from the idea to the implementation and the measurement of results).

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are familiar with the biology and ecology of important animal and plant species, which act as pests and/or are invasive. Students understand the ecological relationships that are necessary for biological control of these species and are able to apply their knowledge in practice in the outdoors.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are familiar with current concepts, methods and problems of modern applied ecology of running waters and are able to evaluate running waters in practice.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are familiar with important socioenvironmental concepts and are able to apply them for problems relating to environment and society.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are able to recognize ecological problems from the perspective of legal conditions and to adhere to environmental and administrative requirements in practical implementation and to communicate them.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: In this module - which is occasionally held by guest lecturers - students get an insight into sub-disciplines of ecology that are not covered by the elective modules 1 - 28 and can put their knowledge into practice.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: In this module - which is occasionally held by guest lecturers - students get an insight into subdisciplines of ecology that are not covered by the elective modules 1 - 29 and can put their knowledge into practice.

Prerequisites for registration: the prerequisites of the respective curricula do apply

Learning Outcome: The objectives defined by the respective module give the students insights into another field of biology and enable them to relate their ecological knowledge to other fields of biology.

Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: Students are able to contrast the skills they have acquired in the course of their university studies with practices in the working world, apply their knowledge in unfamiliar contexts and put their skills to test in tasks that are related to their future professional careers. The ecologically relevant internship at a non-university institution has a duration of about 4 weeks (160 hours). Students have to submit a written report providing an overview of the tasks and responsibilities and the competences they have gained during the internship.
