Short description:
The Kerpely Kálmán Doctoral School of Crop Sciences and Horticulture has doctoral programs in crop production, horticultural sciences, and regional sciences. The Crop Production and Horticultural Doctoral Program investigates the impact of land use systems and agriculture on the state and changes of natural resources (water, soil, air). In the Regional Sciences Doctoral Program, the discipline of regional sciences explores various regional aspects of social and economic processes, as well as national and international questions of regional and settlement development, predominantly in a regional context. In the Centre for Agricultural and Applied Economic Sciences, research is primarily based on multifactor field experiments (crop rotation, tillage, fertilization, irrigation, number of plants, genotype) and their findings, which are unique and acknowledged throughout Europe, with 30 years of history. The doctoral school was founded by twenty-two regular members (seven professors, four professor emeriti, one scientific advisor, eight associate professors, and two scientific research assistants). In addition to the regular members of the doctoral school, thirty-three other university instructors direct and assist with students’ training and research activities. During their studies, students attend three types of courses: compulsory (3 courses), compulsorily optional (25 courses), and optional (55 courses). The doctoral school and the related institutions have remarkable instrumental equipment that is suitable to meet national and international expectations.
