Who this course is for

Could you help shape the future of farming and food production? Do you have a keen interest in science, technology and the environment?

Farming is one of the UK’s most influential industries. It responds to the increasing demand for available, accessible and affordable food, embraces innovation and, by using three quarters of our land area, it shapes our natural environment.

There’s never been a better time to enter the agricultural industry. There’s a huge demand for well qualified, technically aware and forward-thinking young professionals who can manage efficient and productive businesses, are aware of expanding UK and global markets and can work confidently with emerging technologies to reduce energy use and combat climate change.
