43 PhD programmes in Environmental Studies & Earth Sciences in Sweden
Marine Geology
Marine Geology at Stockholm University covers the study of marine and lacustrine sediments and rocks as well as the processes that contributed to their formation.
Risk and Environmental Studies
Risk and Environmental Studies is a doctoral discipline in the Department of Political, Historical, Religious and Cultural Studies at Karlstad University with a thematic focus on the vulnerability and protection of people, nature and society through the perspective of sustainable development.
Meteorology
The Meteorology discipline comprises studies of physical and chemical processes in the atmosphere. The research at Uppsala University is primarily focused on processes in the atmospheric boundary layer and the free troposphere – roughly spanning the lowest 10 kilometres of our atmosphere.
Environmental and Climate Science
The PhD programme in Environmental and Climate Science at Lund University concerns the scientific study of environmental problems caused by humanity.
Sustainability Science
The Sustainability Science PhD programme at Lund University educates PhD graduates from different disciplinary backgrounds within the field of sustainability. Our goal is to train rigorous, creative, and empowered future researchers.
Earth Sciences
The Department of Earth Sciences at Uppsala University is a leading research and education department, attracting researchers and students from around the world.
Geotechnical Engineering
The Geotechnical Engineering degree at Lund University comprises soil and rock mechanics including technological applications.
Geochemistry
Geochemistry is the study of planet chemical processes. The field includes studies of organic, inorganic chemistry and biogeochemical processes. This PhD is offered at Stockholm University.
Aquatic Resources
Doctoral students at the Department of Aquatic Resources at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences work with issues such as how changes in climate and environment affect fish and fisheries, population and ecosystem dynamics and invasive species.
Land and Water Resources Engineering
KTH Royal Institute of Technology offers this PhD in Land and Water Resources Engineering. The subject at the doctoral level includes studies of land and water systems, and technical applications related to land use, water management and construction.
Water Resources Engineering
Water Resources Engineering at Lund University comprises water-related subjects of importance for the built environment in a broad sense.
Ecology, Environment and Plant Sciences
At our department at Stockholm University a broad research is conducted, mainly focused on green biology. This is not a precise term, but includes biology related to Ecology, Environment and Plant Sciences.
Human Ecology
At the Lund University, we offer our graduate students a phd programme degree in Human Ecology. Join us!
Biological and Environmental Sciences
The research the Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences at the University of Gothenburg covers topics spanning from cellular level to population and ecosystems. We study plants and animals both in the lab and in their natural habitats - on land, in the air or in the water - in Sweden and around the globe, from Arctic to Antarctic via the tropics.
Industrial Environmental Economics
The aim of Industrial Environmental Economics at Lund University is to provide knowledge of strategies, policies and tools to move social development in the direction of sustainability.
Engineering Geology
Engineering Geology at the Lund University comprises the material properties, content, stratigraphic relationships and spatial organisation of geological material.
Ecology
Ecology PhD students at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences investigate the relationship between organisms and the landscape, soil, environment and climate.
Forest Ecology and Management
The Forest Ecology and Management PhD education at our department at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences covers a range of research areas spanning basic research on fundamental ecosystem processes to applied research within forest management.
Applied Geochemistry
Applied Geochemistry at Luleå University of Technology focuses on studies of the presence of elements and the geochemical processes that take place in rock, soil and water at Earth's surface.
Crop Production Ecology
Crop Production Ecology PhD students at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences take on fundamental issues that affect all of us. How can we combine improved quality and quantity of crop production with enhanced ecosystem services and reduced negative environmental impact?
