What you will learn
The course combines forestry foundations, a winter school, specialist study and a dissertation. Lleida offers a focus on integrated fire management. Students must study in more than one country, so the experience extends beyond Spain.
Could this course suit you?
This could suit you if you want to connect environmental science with practical choices about land. Think about whether fire, restoration, biodiversity or the relationship between forests and communities most interests you. Comparing the specialist routes can help you shape a useful learning journey.
Applying
The consortium requires at least a bachelor’s degree and B1 English. Apply through its common procedure and discuss your proposed study route. The latest call explicitly excludes Erasmus Mundus scholarships for that edition; do not assume funding from older scholarship pages.
Planning your experience
Budget for moving between study locations, including travel to the winter school, alongside housing and everyday costs.
