项目概述 / Program Summary
This degree focuses on sustainable management of natural resources (soils, water, air, plants, animals, landscapes) within the context of agriculture and other land-based industries, and protection of the rural environment for future generations. This specialist applied science degree will equip students for a career at the interface between production agriculture and environmental protection, by giving them:
- An understanding of rural environmental issues in Ireland, the EU and globally.
- A detailed knowledge of sustainable agriculture and land management practices.
- The skills to contribute to farming and land-use industries, as either a scientist, advisor, consultant, planner or policymaker.
- First-hand experience of agri- environmental research as a basis for further studies.
- Interpersonal and professional skills required in a wide range of career paths.
A 16-weeks period of structured PWE takes place in third year. Assisted by a dedicated lecturer, students arrange the placements themselves, on a farm and with an environmental agency or company. This is a fantastic chance to get new experiences, make industry contacts, and put theory from classes to practical use. Students can also elect to study abroad for one trimester, at universities including:
- Cornell University, USA
- University of California, USA
- Kansas State University, USA
- University of Queensland, Australia
