The Department is organised in numerous chairs conducting teaching and research in scientific disciplines dealing with the abiotic and biotic components of agroecosystems, agrotechnologies, agroeconomy and rural development. Teaching is done on undergraduate (four-year and three-year studies) and postgraduate level (specialisation, master's degree and doctor's degree)
