About this program
What this degree covers and what you can expect from the university.
This full‑time English‑taught Master of Ecology programme is operated by the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences of Lanzhou University. Benefiting from the unique ecological environment of northwest China including alpine grassland, arid desert and loess plateau, this programme focuses on arid‑land ecology, biodiversity conservation, ecological restoration, environmental resource management and global‑change ecological response research. The school possesses multiple field ecological observation stations, environmental analysis laboratories and long‑term ecological‑research platforms. Teaching activities combine theoretical classroom lectures, field ecological investigation, laboratory sample analysis, data simulation modelling and high‑level ecological‑academic seminars. International students receive continuous one‑on‑one academic supervision throughout their whole study cycle. Students need to finish all course credit requirements, complete independent ecological‑scientific‑research work, write qualified master dissertation and pass formal thesis defence for official degree conferral. Qualified international candidates can apply for national‑level and university‑administered scholarship resources to reduce study‑related expenses.
