description

Mission of the EUR-Organic Master Programme
The international Double Degree M.Sc. programme EUR-Organic offers a comprehensive and integrative education in all areas of organic farming, as well as the processing and commercialisation of organic food. The core of EUR-Organic is comprised of areas of specialisation that enable the students to benefit from the different foci of organic agriculture teaching and research of the EUR-Organic partner universities: University of Hohenheim, Germany (UHOH) focuses primarily on the Food Chain, the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna, Austria (BOKU) emphasises the system approach of organic farming. At Aarhus University, Denmark (AU) students can focus on either Animal Health and Welfare or Plant Nutrition and Health. Warsaw University of Life Sciences (WULS) offers a specialised study profile on "Organic Food Quality and Marketing". Our partner ISARA Lyon, France is offering a specialisation in the field of “Agroecology”. In order to benefit from this complementary expertise and to get most of the programme, it is required that students spend one year at their chosen “home university” (warning! Only UHOH, BOKU or AU are available as home universities!) and one year at their chosen host university (any of the 5 EUR-Organic partners).

Programme Structure
The full M.Sc. study programme is made up of 120 ECTS (credits): Two Basic Semester Packages (2 x 30 ECTS), one Specialisation Semester Package (30 ECTS) and a master thesis (30 ECTS). The program starts with a 1 week joint start-up module that is compulsory for all students enrolled in the double degree programme. During the M.Sc. programme all double degree students are studying at two different EUR-Organic partner universities. The university where the student is accepted in the first year of the EUR-Organic is referred to as the “home university”. The university that the student chooses as second university is referred to as the “host university”. As WULS-SGGW and ISARA – Lyon do not offer a full MSc programme yet, students can currently choose between BOKU, UHOH and AU as home university and between UHOH, AU, BOKU, ISARA and WULS-SGGW as host university. The master thesis has to be assigned to the host university, but is supervised jointly by the home and host university.

Educational outcomes
The presented M.Sc. programme offers an insight into all important components of the farming and food systems. Students acquire high quality interdisciplinary knowledge and analytical skills appropriate to meet the demands faced by employees both in the private and public sector. Graduates are highly competitive on the international job market, especially in the fast growing organic sector. Students completing the Master in Organic Agriculture and Food Systems at two universities are awarded a full Master degree from both universities
