Education

Our group produces a wide range of publications and dissertations, while most of our teaching falls under the Master's Programme in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology.

See links below.

Teaching

We contribute to the following Masters and PhD level courses:

YEB-115: Introduction to R. The goal of this course is to learn some very basic skills in R and is intended for those who would like to start using R.

EEB-002: Evolutionary Biology. This course concentrates on how genes and genomes change during the course of evolution, how we can study them and what can we learn from these studies.

EEB-107: Sensory Ecology. Non-human animals do not necessarily sense the world in the same way as we do. This course introduces concepts of information and sensory ecology and encourages students to consider how sensory ecology applies across diverse contexts.

EEB-201: Molecular Ecology Lab course. Get familiar in practice with the most commonly used methods in molecular systematics and molecular ecology.

EEB-207: Conservation Genetics. The aim of the course is to understand how genetic methods can be used to help conserve endangered species and populations.

Most of our members are also very happy to meet with interested Masters students to discuss potential thesis projects and research training in either Viikki or the beautiful Tvärminne Zoological Station.  Get in touch!
