By the appropriate choice of modules you can design your own learning pathway that will satisfy your own specific interests, alongside the core discipline of agricultural science and technology.
Most schemes involve a period of work experience.
All the schemes are intellectually stimulating and cover both the science of agriculture and its field applications. They build on Aberystwyth s internationally recognised teaching and research strengths in agriculture, animal and crop science, and organic agriculture. The courses share first-year core modules that give you a thorough foundation in agriculture, rural policy and economics, together with an introduction to information technology and statistics. Different optional modules in each scheme introduce a specialisation, which you develop in your second and final years, to suit your particular interests and strengths. This flexibility within a shared core of study allows you to defer your final specialisation decision to the end of your first year, when you will have a clearer idea of where your interests lie.
