The BSc study program in Agriculture and Food represents the first level of university studies. The concept of the program allows scientific understanding of biological principles of agriculture, orientation in current agricultural technology, and obtaining basic knowledge on the quality and processing of agricultural products and food. The first half of the studies is focused on applied sciences and relationships between the environment and agricultural practices in both crop and animal production. In the second part of the study program, the students are encouraged to use their developing knowledge and skills to identify practical problems of the production systems to meet the production, economic and environmental goals, as well as the quality of agricultural products and food safety. Graduates obtain a very comprehensive and wide background which provides flexibility on the labour-market or running of their own business.
