Fachkompetenzen:

Students are familiar with a holistic view of analysis of agricultural production systems, in which plant and animal production are integrated in different ways. They have an in-depth knowledge of the aspects of plant production within integrated systems, interactions between socio-economic and biological principles, as well as interactions between system parts and their effects on natural resources. They learn methodological aspects of development, adoption potential, and economic evaluation of integrated technologies.

Schlüsselkompetenzen:

The students have acquired an ability to critically assess problems, interactions and solutions in complex systems. They are able to think and work in interdisciplinary team. They have enhanced communication and team building skills based on interdisciplinary group work experiences and joint presentations. They have acquired further software skills and generally how to build scenarios, validate and calibrate models.
