Cyprus Institute is offering three scholarships to top
students accepted to its
Environmental Sciences Master’s degree program in
September 2018. The awards are part of the
Dean’s Distinguished Scholarship scheme, the most
prestigious scholarship scheme offered by The Cyprus
Institute that covers full funding of tuition and fees and
travel and relocation expenses (from country of origin for
students relocating from abroad).
The
Program, which is unique in Cyprus, prepares the next
generation of leaders in the field of Environmental
Sciences. It
offers two
degree options, an MSc (14-month program, 90 ECTS)
ideal for students pursuing a professional career in the
field and an
MSc/MPhil (18-month program, 120 ECTS) which comes
with an enhanced research component catering to students
that want to pursue a research career.
The program’s diverse
curriculum offers two specialization tracks: Meteorology and
Atmospheric Sciences.
The Meteorology specialization covers
all topics required for professionals
employed
by national meteorological authorities,
as required by the World
Meteorological Organization, rendering it ideal for
existing professionals who want to formalize their
education. It is also an ideal option for students with a
Bachelor’s degree in natural sciences, mathematics or
engineering, who want to pursue a career in Meteorology.
The Atmospheric Sciences specialization equips
students with the necessary knowledge and skills to pursue
a career in Environmental Sciences: in environmental
consulting agencies, environmental monitoring divisions of
public and private institutions,
and research and academic institutions.
The program instructors consist of an
international group of renowned scholars and researchers;
several of them are prominent scientists from the Cyprus
Department of Meteorology.
Additional
information on the admission requirements for the program
and the Dean’s Distinguished Scholarships can be found on
The Cyprus Institute website.
The
program is accredited by the Cyprus Agency of Quality
Assurance and Accreditation in Higher Education and is in
line with the Bologna Process Second Cycle Degree
Guidelines.
