Department of Agronomy
The outlook of the Department of Agronomy and Plant Breeding on crop production is based on region-friendly production and environmentalism, while creating an all-around and consolidated attitude toward agricultural production. This Department established its Bachelor’s program in 1995. The aim of this program is to train students who are experts in the fields of Crop Production, Regional Planning and research, as well as being able to play roles as instructors in agricultural high schools, coordinators of agricultural research, or as managers of public and private agricultural production units.
The Department of Agronomy and Plant Breeding started its Master’s program in 2008 with the aim to train specialists who are capable in planning and management of agricultural sectors and in teaching and conducting research in private and public sectors.
The doctoral program at the Department of Agronomy accepted candidates since 1994. The aim of this program is to train the Agronomy specialists to lead advanced research programs and teaching, coordinate the programs to deal with challenges, application development of resources and improving efficiency in agronomy programs. Student in this program can study in Agro-Environment Studies (Agroecology). More
