Professional profile<\/strong><\/h6>

This study program aims to provide professional training to future environmental researchers, integrating knowledge on global environmental issues and phenomena, and contextualizing and applying them to the Albanian case. Guaranteeing balances for the proper functioning of the entire environmental system requires the treatment of its problems by experts of all levels who use environmental logic in all human interventions, starting from the fact that sensitivity to environmental problems is increasing significantly and in Albania, this within the aspirations for EU integration. The environment and its problems are in the center of attention both on a local scale and on a global scale, making this program very coherent with the demands of the times and the market.<\/p>
