Climate Change Management

The world is facing difficult climate challenges, with more extreme weather, floods and rock or snow avalanches. The Master in Climate Change Management gives you sought-after and interdisciplinary competence in how we can achieve a sustainable transition and greener behaviour. Why study Climate Change Management? With its proximity to fjords, mountains and glaciers, as well as avalanche and flood-exposed terrain, Sogndal is the perfect laboratory for studying climate change. In Sogndal you will have close interaction with an internationally oriented research environment that has broad competence in climate, nature, and sustainability. We look at climate challenges and climate adaptation through a holistic lens, where both natural science and social science perspectives are emphasized. In your master's thesis, you can specialize in a topic you are particularly interested in.
