This direction will enable the adoption of the necessary knowledge about the basics of agricultural systems for food production and processing, about their efficiency and civilization and social situation.

Agricultural engineering, and the importance of introducing innovations in food production is complementary to the modern aspirations of competitive agriculture. In addition, the participants of this study program will master courses in production systems management from the aspect of environmental management systems and quality systems.

Renewable energy and energy efficiency is an important discipline for engineers that contributes to the establishment of agricultural growth with limited use of natural resources.
