Programme in brief

In this program we welcome you as exchange students from our partner institutes. The minor A-systems offers you a choice of courses in which to develop your knowledge and skills on the crossover of biology and technology: A relatively new area of hybrid engineering, optimally suited for the innovative breakthroughs in bio-technical solutions, needed by the agricultural sector.

What to expect from us

The student knows the agrifood sector from a biological and technological point of view. He knows how to measure certain parameters of plants and/or animals and how to regulate the environment in order to influence the growth process and/or behaviour.

What do we expect from you?

You develop their own studies with passion and talent, and are stimulated to rise above yourself in one or more themes in order to earn a place in the professional field. The education is demand driven in order to foster your own talents to the max. We provide the opportunities, but the student creates his own path!
