PhD Students

Department of Agriculture and Ecology educates PhD students on a scientific basis with special focus on agriculture related issues. Understanding of microorganisms, plants and animals' interaction with their environment is the starting point for the daily and close collaboration of research groups to which the PhD students are assigned. The Department has over the years built up a tradition of interdisciplinary and inter-department cooperation to ensure that the PhD students are in close contact with Danish and foreign research colleagues, including contact with the farming industry, bio-industry, environmental authorities, etc.
