Publications from our students
The Master's program Geobiology and Paleobiology has a strong research-orientation. Students conduct research projects in two modules (P 9 Research Project, 12 ECTS & P11 Master Project, 30 ECTS), and possibly as research assistants in on-going projects. Here we present publications authored or co-authored by our students.
