Vakinhoudelijk

Estuaries and coastal waters are among the most biologically productive ecosystems on the planet, critical to the life cycles of fish, other aquatic animals, and the creatures that feed on them. In the Coastal Ecology course you will learn about key ecological concepts and learn how they apply to coastal ecosystems.


The course is currently being redesigned to incorporate a broader fundamental ecological understanding and to include application of ecological research. As such the course description will be completer by the start of academic year (2023/2024).

Development of transferable skills:
  • Ability to work in a team. Students have to distribute tasks and organize the workflow;
  • Verbal communication skills: emphasis is put on transferring knowledge to both a non-scientific audience and the scientific community; talks need to be prepared to transfer scientific literature and ecological concepts
