Agrolog (YH), Bioekonomi, h21

Description

The goal of the education is to provide students with a broad and practically and theoretically well-established higher agricultural education, where both science and sustainability principles form an important basis.

Central to the studies is knowledge of planning processes, production within the various fields of agriculture and sustainable use of natural resources.

Both general broad-based bioeconomic expertise and industry-specific in-depth expertise in the agricultural industry are emphasized.

In the studies, students can take part in versatile studies that emphasize biological, technical, and economic conditions for farming.

Bachelor of agricultural students learn to understand the interactive interaction between agricultural production, environment and society.

Objective

- has well developed communication and language skills (Swedish, Finnish, English) and can operate with professional computer programs and
has also the capacity to use databases and information of central importance in the agricultural sector
- can actively and successfully act and cooperate in the agricultural sector, both on a national and international level
