Agriculture, Ecology and Societies (Master)
The content on this page was translated automatically.
The master's program Agriculture, Ecology & Societies (AGES) enables students to link these parallel threads of knowledge and explore agriculture as a complex socio-ecological system. It combines a solid agronomic qualification with a good understanding of how agriculture is embedded economically and socially. With project study and wide module choices, AGES encourages students to tailor their studies to their interests and goals. The program emphasizes interdisciplinary, critical, and project-based learning and brings together faculty with diverse (inter)disciplinary backgrounds. All AGES modules are taught in English.
AGES is offered by the Department of Ecological Agricultural Sciences. As a transdisciplinary program, AGES combines the experience and facilities of four other departments at the University of Kassel:
- Department 02 - Humanities and Cultural Studies
- Department 05 - Social Sciences
- Department 06 - Architecture - Urban Planning - Landscape Planning
- Department 07 - Economic Sciences
At our international partner universities, students can further specialize in areas such as agroecology, rural development and environmental management. Stays abroad can also be integrated into the development of the master's thesis as field research.
