The follow-up master’s degree programme in Agricultural Engineering and Technology provides students with higher education particularly in the areas of crop and animal production technologies, transport and handling equipment in agriculture, applied electronics and automation in agricultural practice, and design in agricultural engineering. You acquire a solid and comprehensive theoretical background as well as practical skills, which they are able to apply independently and creatively when solving specific problems arising from real-world practice. During their studies, students also develop skills closely related to actual operational conditions. Throughout the programme, students actively interact with representatives of agricultural enterprises, manufacturers and suppliers of agricultural machinery, professionals from development departments, and representatives of public administration, for example through specialised seminars led by industry experts or through practical training and internships in companies. In cooperation with a selected company, students usually prepare their final thesis.
