Scholarship in sweden

The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, SLU, is a partner in three Erasmus Mundus programs. The Master of Science in European Forestry is organized by the University of Joensuu, Finland, and focuses on policy aspects of sustainable forestry. Starting from August 2007, SLU is a partner in the Sustainable Forest and Nature Management program, coordinated by Den Kgl. Veterinær– og Landbohøjskole, Denmark. This program deals with the challenges of pursuing a sustainable management of Europe’s natural resources - namely, that the management of forests and nature areas must be seen in an integrated landscape context. Animal Breeding and Genetics, coordinated by Wageningen University, Netherlands, focuses on building capacities in the fields of Animal Breeding and Genetics to meet challenges in developed and developing countries concerning food security, food quality, animal health, welfare and biodiversity.
