Debreceni Egyetem (UNIDEB) Hungary
Debreceni Egyetem (UNIDEB) Hungary
UNIDEB is the oldest, continously operating higher education institution in Hungary. Today, the University of Debrecen carries out its agricultural training, research and development activities in three organizational units: the Faculty of Agriculture, Food Science and Environmental Management (MÉK), the Faculty of Economics (GTK) and the Institutes for Agricultural Research and Educational Farm (AKIT). Research activities of the Institutes for Agricultural Research and Educational Farm involve the entire agricultural sector. Research is carried out on the field of animal husbandry, crop production, horticulture, environmental management, nature conservation, wildlife management, food science, quality assurance and natural sciences. At the Kismacsi Animal Husbandry Experimental Farm, gene conservation, breeding and production activities are carried out in parallel with the practical training. In the field of animal husbandry, the research area is the genetic analysis of hairy and shaggy wool sheep in order to stabilize the national herd. The Faculty of Agriculture, Food Science and Environmental Management – adapting to today’s scientific challenges – formulates both its training and research activities according to the circular bio-economy model, which is based on the recycling of materials and values, by increasing the added value of the produced product, through services and smart solutions. It is especially important for us to maintain a wide-ranging system of professional and economic relations with the enterprises of the region, which, on the one hand, provides the conditions for practical training and, on the other hand, helps to utilize the scientific results created at the University. Our undergraduate and master’s programs, our talent management colleges, and our doctoral schools all play a decisive role in higher agricultural education and scientific supply.
