Beginning from the Academic Year 2020-2021 University of Helsinki Environmental Humanities Hub conjointly with Indigenous Studies, Aleksanteri Institute and other partners introduced the "Environmental Humanities Studies Modules I. / II." (15/15 ECTS)

The Environmental Humanities study modules provide an introduction to multidisciplinary and especially humanistic approaches to environmental research. The study modules are recommended for all students interested in environmental issues and humanistic approches to environmental research. The ALKU master's program is responsible for the administration of the study unit.

You can now complete the 15 ECTS study unit ALKU-EH510 / Humanistic Environmental Research I and, if you wish, another 15 ECTS module ALKU-EH520 / Humanistic Environmental Research II. Autumn 2020 courses within the program are groupped as "Basic", "Intermediate", "Advanced" and "Optional" studies for students. In Spring 2021 "Basic", "Intermediate", and "Advanced" studies are announced.
