The Erasmus Mundus International Master in Soils and Global Change (IMSOGLO) offers you a unique international educational experience with a focused curriculum on different aspects of soils and global change. Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters are prestigious international masters, jointly designed and delivered by a group of higher education institutions. In IMSOGLO, the following institutions are involved:

  • Ghent University (Belgium, coordinator of programme)
  • University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (Austria)
  • University of Göttingen (Germany)
  • Aarhus University (Denmark)

The programme educates soil scientists to have knowledge and skills to characterize soils, understand soil evolution in an ecosystem context under global change based on a deep insight in the underlying processes and interactions, and develop strategies to implement climate-smart soil management policies.

The two-year programme (120 ECTS) is divided into two specialisations: The first specialisation, “Soil Ecosystem Services and Global Change”, involves studying at Ghent University and Aarhus University. The second specialisation, “Soil-Plant System Processes and Global Change” involves studying at Ghent University, University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, and the University of Göttingen.
