These seminars are the overarching, shared course for all Earth Science master’s program students and students carrying out or planing to carry out a thesis within Earth Science, regardless whether you study climatology, geology, bio-geochemistry ... or are an incoming or returning student.

Seminars usually take place (roughly) every other Thursday, 16:15-17:45. It is possible though, that additional seminars are arranged on the "in-between" Thursdays e.g. to accommodate a thesis defense or a talk by an external speaker. Reminders will be sent in the beginning of each week when a seminar is planned. In addition, students are asked to always check the schedule on Canvas/TimeEdit, rooms will vary from class to class.

Detailed information  about the course and the program, requirements, and more will be provided at the first seminar on September 12, 2024.  Please contact the responsible teacher Thomas Zack (thomas.zack@gu.se), if  you want to participate in the course,  but can’t make it to the first seminar, or if you are unsure whether or not you should / can participate.

The schedule is preliminary up to two weeks before the start of the course.
