Agriculture and food science
In a region where agriculture and food production contribute significantly to value creation, the Department of Agricultural Economics and Food Sciences at Neubrandenburg University of Applied Sciences is active at the interface between academic teaching, research and practice.
The university bundles its expertise and activities for the entire chain of production and processing of food and renewable raw materials in a competence field of the same name. The associated ecological, social and economic issues and the development of rural areas are also considered in this context.
With its focus on practice-orientated research and development issues in this field, Neubrandenburg University of Applied Sciences has long been a competent partner for agricultural companies, institutions and politics in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
