University of Kassel best university in the teaching area of agricultural engineering

In the context of the award ceremony of the 5th agricultural university ranking of the magazine topagrar at the Eurotier in Hannover on 17.11.2016, the University of Kassel was awarded in the teaching area of agricultural engineering as the best university in Germany. After achieving good rankings in each of the previous years as well, the top spot was earned this year. Björn Bohne and Dr. Uwe Richter received the award on behalf of the university from Kurt Glück (Head of Marketing at  ). In response to the question posed by Claus Mayer of topagrar's editorial team, "Is it just a coincidence that the best teaching is done in organic agricultural sciences in agricultural engineering, of all things?", Björn Bohne replied that there is a clear system-oriented concept behind the lecture, which places the student at the center. Just as in organic farming, where the farm is also seen as a system, with which one must manage holistically. There can therefore be no question of coincidence. The industry representatives participating in the tribute were very interested in the very good performance of the University of Kassel. In particular, Mr. Glück from the Horsch company announced that he would now increasingly include this location when looking for employees.
