BSc & MSc projects
We provide a number of potential Bachelor and Master of Science projects, ranging from theoretical projects involving the mathematical modeling of communities and their evolution to projects involving (international) fieldwork, taxonomy and (population) genetics in collaboration with other groups and institutes.
Below you can find a current overview of projects, subdivided according to the major research pillars of QBD. Most projects are available both as BSc or MSc projects and serve as a subject framework. For those projects only specifically meant for either BSc or MSc level this will be specified. Found a project you would like to do or receive more information about? Fill out the application form and we will contact you as soon as possible!
For more general questions about our projects, please don't hesitate to mail the project coördinator Kirsten Timmerman via k.h.timmerman@uu.nl.
