Environment and Resources Management with Focus on Latin America and the Caribbean (Double-Degree Master's Programme between Mexico and Germany)Latin Amerika ve Karayipler Odaklı Çevre ve Kaynak Yönetimi

The basic concept of the two-year, double-degree Master's programme builds upon the two accredited Master's programmes of the cooperating universities in Mexico and Germany. In so far, the double degree is not offered as an independent Master's programme but rather as a combination of selected content from both national programmes, which merge into one structured and pre-defined programme. Successful graduates of the programme receive two degrees, one from each university. The ENREM (Environment and Resources Management) double-degree Master's programme aims to equip professionals with the competencies and skill sets to assess the multidimensional challenges, sustainable utilisation of natural resources, and environmental opportunities concerning the transformation of the Latin American region towards resilience and resource security. The programme's structure, concept, and mobility allow the students to learn the environmental problems and potential solutions in Latin America from a local perspective at UASLP with a global component from TH Köln. With the Master's thesis, students are prepared for implementation in a regional context of their chosen country in Latin America. Content Mandatory modules: Core modules: Environmental Problems and Management, Sustainable Development, Ecology, Statistics, Environmental Economics and Governance, Project Management Project modules: multidisciplinary seminar, project: implementation Thesis preparation modules: thesis seminar, Master's thesis preparation Elective modules: The students need to select eight elective modules: Modules from the “ENREM” catalogue – a mix of courses from PMPCA at UASLP and Natural Resources Management (NRM) at TH Köln (a minimum of four modules), e.g. Ecological and Social Risks Management, Environmental Governance and Sustainability Transition, Waste Management and Circular Economic; Biodiversity and Food Security; Assessment of Integrated Environmental Health; Ecology and Climate Change; Ecology of Crops Production, Environment, and Society; etc. “Methods and Tools” elective modules (a minimum of one module), e.g. Scientific Work, Geographic Information Systems and Remote Sensing, Economic Evaluation Methods, Environmental Assessment, Evaluation and Management of Renewable Natural Resources, etc. A maximum of three elective modules can be chosen from any module catalogue, including the catalogues of the “Renewable Energy Management REM” and “Integrated Water Resources Management IWRM” adjoining Master's programmes. The ENREM programme is open to applicants of all nationalities, who are highly motivated to work in an international partnership with both Latin America and Germany and are fluent in Spanish and English. The ENREM double-degree Master's programme prepares graduates for a wide array of attractive positions, offering career prospects in planning; project implementation; and evaluation at the local, national, regional, and international levels.
