About the Program

Agriculture is a booming business. But global competition, resource scarcity and increasing demand are challenging the sector in new ways. For companies to remain competitive, they will need talented specialists who are well-versed not only in the state of agricultural and food industries, but also understand the issues driving regional development, sustainability management and environmental policy. Agribusiness B.A. trains these types of specialists: graduates able to combine business expertise and advanced management skills tailored to the agricultural and nutritional sciences. During your studies you will explore in great detail how companies can not only navigate rising consumer expectations in the food industry and increasingly complex production logistics, but do so and thrive.

Close ties with regional agribusiness and agricultural institutions both in Germany and abroad ensure that the knowledge and skills you acquire in this degree programme are practical and oriented towards real industry application.
