Postgraduate Courses in Biology



 

The Swedish Network

A network for PhD studies in biology has been established to exchange
ideas, inform about courses and promote  mobility of students. The network
has representatives from all universities with postgraduate education in
biology.

Contact person: Håkan Rydin, Uppsala University

Information about the network
 

If you want to advertise a PhD level Biology course (in Sweden or elsewhere) on these pages, send links or documents to Sören Nylin




 

Old courses are kept here for a time for information purposes - after all, they might be repeated, and they give you an idea about where to turn for information. Links may die after some time - tell me when you find them!
