Study program - INTER-EnAgro

The graduate study program INTER-EnAgro offers theoretical and practical knowledge targeted at sustainable use and management of natural resources such as soil and water as well as positive and negative effects of human activities, primarily agriculture, on these resources. The program is designed as a continuation of undergraduate studies and enables the continuation of studies at the postgraduate level.

Based on the contemporary teaching process and completely English-taught study program (with the participation of national and international teachers), students will be able to acquire generic and field-specific competencies that are needed to achieve sustainable development goals and to work in different fields of agriculture, environmental protection and sustainable use of natural resources. The objective is to educate experts who will have the knowledge, skills, and competencies in the fundamental and applied scientific fields of agriculture, environmental protection, and related natural, engineering, and biotechnical sciences. Furthermore, the objective is to train students to participate in scientific research in the field of agriculture and environmental protection conducted in higher education institutions and scientific research institutes, as well as for further education in postgraduate study. Teaching in English enables participation in programs at the international level and also facilitates the exchange of information, upgrading and enhancement of study contents, cooperation with an international partner, and capacity building in teaching and research.
