Agriculture with Agronomy BSc Honours (D444)

On this degree, you'll study the science of crop production and soil management, and how it can lead to improvements in crop yield and quality.
You study wide-ranging agriculture topics in your first two years, exploring plant biology, soil science, nutrition, management, accounting and law.

In your third year you specialise in agronomy, learning about the production and protection of a wide range of crops (such as cereals, pulses and field vegetables). You learn about the factors influencing major arable crops, both in the classroom and through visits to commercial and research organisations.

You'll also learn how to meet economic needs and consumer demand, and understand the impact of changing climatic conditions. You can boost your employability and professional skills with an optional placement year in industry or the commercial sector.
