Study with us

The Department of Ecology, Environment and Plant Sciences (DEEP) offers a wide range of courses on all levels, including Bachelor’s, Master’s, and PhD.

All undergraduate programs and courses in biology are organized and managed by BIG (department of Biology Education), but the teaching itself is conducted by teachers and researchers from the Biology Departments at Stockholm University.

On BIGs website you can find necessary information about course content, structure and entry requirements, and how to apply for courses or programs.
