The MSc program offers theoretical and applied knowledge about the sustainable use and management of natural resources (soil, water, and air) and the positive as well as negative influence of agriculture and forestry on these resources. As the program is fully taught in English graduates can work in international companies and governmental institutions focused on protection of the environment.
