Compare 3 Master of Science Programs in Agricultural Engineering

The objective of the M.Sc. program is to educate future agricultural engineers, who are able to apply the knowledge of agricultural and natural sciences, technical science, social and economical sciences in diverse areas of modern agriculture. The study plan considers the increasing demand for agricultural engineers with skills to plan and control the agricultural production processes in a changing political, economic and natural (including climate change) environment in Europe, Africa and elsewhere. Competitive training in precision techniques, new breeding systems, and biotechnology, as well as economics and social sciences and languages, are part of the education.... [-]

Agro- and Ecosystems Engineering is about ensuring the prosperity and well-being of current and future generations in both the global North and global South. Agro- and ecosystems provide a wide range of essential goods and services such as food, water, energy, and biodiversity. Yet, the contemporary context of population growth, rapid urbanization, economic globalization, climate change, deforestation, soil pollution and degradation challenges the future provisioning of a sufficient quantity and quality of these goods and services.

The Master of Agro- and Ecosystems Engineering (ACE) provides in-depth knowledge of the functioning and management of natural and production-oriented ecosystems. You can choose to focus on either temperate or (sub)tropical settings, or a combination of both. You compliment the interdisciplinary core programme with a major specialization in one out of four different domains: biological production, abiotic and biotic environment, bioeconomics, and bio-geo information....
