Program Overview
The South of Russia is the main food supplier for the whole country, the urgent task is to develop, improve and introduce into practice bio- and agrotechnologies, adaptive landscape systems of agriculture, biological methods of soil fertility regulation. The land administration system requires improvement, fundamental changes in the field of professional education in soil science, ecology, land use, agrochemistry. Masters degree provides in-depth specialized training in the chosen field of biology or soil science with the continuation of general education. The main target group of the training program is graduates of higher education institutions of the Southern Federal District, the North Caucasus Federal District, Russia in general, and countries of near and far abroad. The purpose of the educational program is to prepare high-level professionals capable of conducting research, production, management activities, in areas related to the study of the state of land cover as a prerequisite for the rational use and management of land resources, taking into account their economic and environmental assessment.
