Faculty of Agricultural, Nutritional and Engineering Sciences

Supplying a growing world population with healthy food while at the same time reducing the negative environmental impact of agricultural production is one of the key challenges for agricultural and nutrition research.

The provision of energy and food security for an estimated 9 billion people in 2030 is a major challenge for global agriculture. The limited availability of arable land and resources such as water make it essential to farm sustainably and thus give future generations a chance of survival.

Thanks to the unique combination of agricultural, nutritional and food sciences with geodesy, the Faculty of Agricultural, Nutritional and Engineering Sciences (AEI) has ideal opportunities to develop the scientific basis for a sustainable supply of energy and food to meet demand and to support its implementation in practice.

For the AEI, top scientific qualifications and professional skills are equally important educational goals. Graduates must not only acquire theoretical and practical specialist knowledge, but also methodological and social skills and the ability to think critically and interdisciplinarily. We meet the requirements of the job market with research-oriented Bachelor's and Master's degrees.
