International Environmental Management
Many of our environmental problems are transboundary and require international cooperation for their mitigation or solution.
Many of our environmental problems are transboundary and require international cooperation for their mitigation or solution. The course deals with the nature of international environmental problems, and the development of international environmental management strategies and methods. Lectures and interactive seminars provide insight into global and regional environmental problems related to, among other things, biodiversity, transboundary water and air pollution and how these can be dealt with using environmental law and negotiations at international and EU levels.
The course is part of Master's Programme in Environmental Management and Physical Planning but can also be read as a separate course.

Plagiarism and regulations for disciplinary matters
As a student you must be conscientious about clearly accounting for the material used in the texts that are submitted for examination. To use another person’s expressions or ideas without stating the source is plagiarism. To translate and/or change some words in someone else’s text and present it as your own is also a form of plagiarism. Plagiarism is considered cheating and if discovered in an exam or paper, the exam or paper will be failed immediately and disciplinary measures may be taken.
Any student who is caught cheating or disrupting academic activities may be suspended from lectures and exams for a period of up to six months. The Vice Chancellor or the Disciplinary Council decide whether the student is to be subject to any disciplinary measures.
