An important place is given to practical training – it makes 19 credits. Students will receive practical training on certified organic farms (17 cooperation agreements have been signed).

A distinctive feature of the educational program is pointed out, i.e. while developing the curriculum we took into account the experience of the EU countries with their significant experience in implementing the theory of organic farming in education and science.

It is noted that the curriculum was developed jointly with a group of professors working in the area of organic farming (Germany Federal Ministry of Agriculture) who exchanged their experiences and conducted training for teaching staff on various practical issues of organic farming. But this curriculum is not a dogma – the curriculum will be improved considering the colleagues experience from other scientific institutions, including the near and far abroad.

The educational program "Organic Farming" will promote the competitiveness of agronomists and increase their employment opportunities.
