Description:

The world faces a crisis risking extinction of species through global warming and other anthropogenic impacts. Due to e.g., changes in land use and destruction of habitats, tropical rainforests and woodlands, mangrove forests and coral reefs are disappearing and with them ecosystem functions, goods and services on which human populations depend. In order to conserve nature, to manage or to rehabilitate tropical biodiversity and ecosystems in an era of uncertainty, we must understand spatial and temporal patterns in tropical biodiversity, study how organisms interact with their environment and how they respond to perturbations and change, and assess utilisation patterns, management and governance systems. This is dealt with in this unique masters programme combining theory, practice and independent research. UniversitiesULBUniversité Libre de Bruxelles (Belgium)VUBVrije Universiteit Brussel (Belgium)SUSorbonne Université (France)MNHNMuséum National d'Histoire Naturelle (France)UNIFIUniversità degli Studi di Firenze (Italy)UdGUniversité de la Guyane Française (French Guiana)UdAUniversité des Antilles (Guadeloupe)UDschUniversité de Dschang (Cameroon) UNIVANTAUniversite d Antananarivo (Madagascar)UNIRéUniversité de La Réunion (Reunion Island)RUHUniversity of Ruhuna (Sri Lanka)UMTUniversiti Malaysia Terengganu (Malaysia)TROPIMUNDO is an EC-funded and excellence-labelled Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree in Tropical Biodiversity and Ecosystems. We aim to bring together expert Higher Education Institutes (HEI), with long-standing worldwide expertise in tropical rainforests and woodlands and in tropical coastal ecosystems. TROPIMUNDO students can concentrate on botany, zoology and integrative ecosystem approaches in institutions with and beyond Europe in 2 Master years, of which an entire semester is spent in the tropics. Specialisation is possible on the evolution of tropical flora and vegetation, on faunistic assemblages, on informatics tools to treat and manage biodiversity data and databases (biogeographical, genetical, geographical information systems) including the management and conservation of historic collections such as herbarium sheets, on the study of diversity, dynamics and evolution of tropical and subtropical ecosystems (with a focus on four related systems, namely tropical rainforests and woodlands, mangrove forests, seagrass beds and coral reefs, including the interactions between flora, fauna, man and the environment within and between each of these adjacent ecosystems), on conservation and restoration ecology of natural habitats and their biodiversity including competences in sustainable management and governance of biodiversity, and finally, on tropical ethnobotany, exploitation and valorisation of natural resources and conservation of traditional ecological knowledge.

The information in this website may be subject to changes from one year to another. ApplicationThe scholarship call for applicants intending to start in academic year 2021-2022 is cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The next scholarship call or applicants intending to start in academic year 2022-2023 is expected to open in October 2021.The second call for self-funded applicants intending to start their studies in academic year 2021-2022 is postponed until further notice.Detailed information on TROPIMUNDO facts, conditions, procedures, deadlines, etc... is available in the online Information and Application Module.Click here to get your personal account to the online Application, Information and Management Tool.The first TROPIMUNDO call is for scholarship seekers or self-funded applicants and will be evaluated as a batch after the deadline in November 2021. If available places remain a second call will be opened and applications will be treated on a first come first served basis. The second call for TROPIMUNDO applications from self-funded applicants from all countries will be open until the deadline of 30 April of 2022. After this date the call will remain open only for self-funded applicants from Programme Countries until 28 June 2022.

Prospective applicants should check the FAQ to see which BSc are likely to be considered equivalent and which are not;Students must be able to demonstrate proficiency in English or in English + French. However, in the 1st and 3rd semester extra-curricular language courses are offered to improve language skills needed on the student's study Trajectory. More information on language requirements can be found in the online Application, Information and Management Tool (AIM-tool);A personal evaluation of the applications will be done by the Selection Committee composed of all Local Coordinators.Trajectory in 4 semestersThe consortium is composed of 8 institutes in Programme Countries (European) and 4 higher education institutes in Partner Countries (non-European). In a first semester, students start at a European institute of their choice to acquire similar competences. In a second semester field experience and courses will take place in a university in a tropical region. The third semester will cover a specialisation in a European university different from the first semester. The fourth semester is dedicated to the MSc Thesis and students return to where they started out. Every Trajectory of 4 semesters constitutes a unique combination of courses and expertises.In-depth information available:4 semestersCurrent course list and detailed course descriptionsTuition feesTuition fees are 9,000 EUR per year for students from Partner countries (largely outside Europe) and 4,500 EUR per year for students from Programme countries (largely European). Self-funded students will receive a restitution of 500 EUR for each 4500 EUR paid. Tuition fees are to be paid to the coordinating institute an include consortium enrolment fees and the insurance cost. The tuition fees do not include costs related to visa and preparatory documents, accommodation, additional insurance costs, living expenses and travel and transportation costs. However, EC-funded students have additional cost coverage.Find more information here.ScholarshipsTROPIMUNDO Candidates can also apply for anEC scholarshipopen to applicants from all nationalities.

The Local Coordinator, assisted by a Local Administrative Manager, will be the single contact point for students in all matters and will act as liaison between students and the administrative departments at their institution. All European institutes also have an International Relations Office that is used to guide foreign students and researchers, providing necessary material to help them find their way in the full program. The consortium aims to meet the highest quality requirements.
