Practicing Interdisciplinary Field Research on the Environment
Practicing Interdisciplinary Field Research on the Environment or 'the SLUSE Course', is a field-based MSc course offered jointly by three departments at the Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen and Roskilde University (RUC).
The video below is from a field trip to Thailand, when the course had a different title. The content is very similar to the current course:
The course was first established in 1998 through an international collaboration on sustainable land use and natural resource management (SLUSE) between universities in Denmark, Malaysia, Thailand and South Africa - see more under "history of SLUSE".
Today, the course is run as part of the curriculum at three MSc educations at University of Copenhagen (Environment and Development, Global Environment and Development, Geography and Geoinformatics) and partners with international universities, including University of Warzaw, Poland; University of Milan, Italy; University Malaysia Sarawak; University of Nairobi, Kenya; and Tribhuvan University, Nepal.
The full course description is found here: Practicing Interdisciplinary Field Research on the Environment - 2024/2025 (ku.dk) and details of the coming course will be updated at the beginning of each study year, see 'About the current field course'.
Information meeting about the course: 29th November at 14:00 in the Festauditorium, Bülowsvej 17, Frederiksberg
