Agroecology
The programme content addresses the entire farming and food system and is interdisciplinary. Consequently, it is an alternative to programmes that focus on single components of these systems. The pedagogical approach is based on experiential and action oriented learning.
The program consists of the following parts: Core courses in agroecology emphasising farming and food systems (PAE302, 30 credits) and PAE306 - Agroecology: Action oriented research (10 credits). Five credits at 100 level in foreign language is accepted in the degree for students at the M-AE program `European master`. The master`s thesis is normally at 30 credits, alternatively 60 credits.
