Global Approach by Modular Experiments

An international research and education program for master's students in biology, ecology, and environmental sciences.

Conducting experiments abroad together with a local student as part of a global research project, meeting with the other teams from around the world for preparation and follow-up at GEOMAR in Kiel, and writing a master's thesis based on the data collected - that's GAME!

  • Since 2011, GAME has been supported and advised by a Board of Trustees.

    Become a supporter of GAME!

    From 2002 to 2008, GAME was funded by the Mercator Foundation and subsequently by the Kiel University Foundation and GEOMAR. Since 2011, supporters from the German foundation landscape, from the (predominantly maritime) industry, as well as private donors could be gained.

    To ensure that the program can continue in the future, we are looking for additional supporters who would like to get involved in marine research, the education of students and the international networking of scientists. Make your donation possible for future students from all over the world to participate in this international training program that combines applied research with excellent education.
