These days (January 23 to February 13, 2012) are largely devoted to the first round of master‘s thesis presentations at the Coastal and Marine Management program. Eight students are currently being evaluated for their work on their 45 ECTS master's thesis.

 

The topics are diverse, and we encourage those who can to attend. Overview of seven scheduled presentations can be found below.
