  • Agricultural Sciences

  • Upon successful completion of the course, students will possess a basic working knowledge, have gained practice-oriented expertise from the fields of crop sciences, animal sciences and agricultural economics and social sciences, have an interdisciplinary perspective on the connections and cycles of agricultural production, have the methodological and social skills to make flexible use of their knowledge in professional practice, and have laid the foundations for gaining a second professional qualification.

    Why study Agricultural Sciences at HU?

    A little theory on agriculture and animal husbandry, then back to the family farm - this has nothing to do with modern agricultural sciences. Students of agricultural studies must be flexible and versatile. HU introduced the two-stage programme ending with the Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees introduced in 2000. It has been accredited and re-accredited. This is a modular course of study, offering students a high level of flexibility and mobility. The way the subject areas are equipped and the many opportunities to work at institutes within Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and at experimental and research facilities supports the successful combination of theory and practice. We have agreements with more than 40 partner universities abroad. The master’s course is primarily offered in English. This is the only German institute that in which you can study Fish Biology, Fisheries and Aquaculture. Several international courses with other universities represent new forms of education and partnership. The close connection with other specialised disciplines in the capital is also unique. The 1,600-student institute is a member of Agrosnet, the Eastern German agricultural sciences association, as well as of the European and global agriculture faculty federations (ICA and GCHERA).

    The course accommodates the constantly changing professional fields in this area. Few other courses of study lead to so many different applications in practical work, science, services and consulting, both upstream and downstream, in Germany and abroad. Extreme drought, torrential rain and dramatic changes to flora and fauna are all causing problems across the globe - agricultural scientists can help to overcome them. The institute has always focussed on natural processes. Long before any thought was given to ecology, we were dealing with the questions of how to farm land, handle nature and create products from nature. Grain, vegetables, eggs, milk, meat and fish: these are the basis of human life, around which all of agricultural science revolves.

    The educational objective of the bachelor’s degree is to acquire professional capability and lay the foundations for the subsequent master’s course. This in turn will open up further fields of application, such as science and development aid, and forms the basis for a doctoral degree.

    The institute is currently working together with agricultural faculties in Rostock and Halle to implement the ‘AgrosNet’ collaborative project (www.agrosnet.de). The aim of this association is to combine the strengths of individual locations for the benefit of students. Students can gain from this pooling of research and teaching resources, since the master’s and doctoral teaching modules at all three locations have been combined into one module pool. Students matriculate at the home university, but the timetable is compiled from the programs of all three universities. This is made possible by a ‘virtual campus’ and modern means of communication: distance-learning courses and video conferences, lectures on DVD, supplemented by two-week block modules, which form part of the final grade together with the examination and points awarded. The professors also offer regular chats.
