The aim of the doctoral study programme is to prepare experts capable of a multidisciplinary approach to solving current landscape-related issues in both environmental and agricultural production contexts. The programme places emphasis not only on acquiring specialised knowledge and methodological skills, but primarily on developing critical thinking and the ability to independently analyse complex professional information, conduct research both in laboratory and field conditions, and appropriately interpret and publish the results obtained. Students are guided to develop competencies necessary for carrying out scientific research and project activities in terms of process management, professional content, and financial aspects. An important objective of the programme is also to develop students’ ability to creatively apply research outcomes in practice. Students are trained to integrate knowledge of ecosystem structures, processes, and functions with practical experience.
