Our society depends on farming and food production. Climate change, Covid-19 and skills shortages only reinforce the need for agriculture degree graduates with the passion, and knowledge, to make a difference for future generations.
So why not make our farming future your focus? Our agriculture degree courses equip you with the knowledge, insights and ideas for an exciting career in the farming and food industries, helping to create a better future for us all.
Get your hands dirty at our on-campus farm in the heart of rural Cheshire, with an array of professional-standard livestock, arable-crop and horticultural-crop production systems.
Then build your experience in state-of-the-art technologies such as our Lely Astronaut A5 automated robotic milking system, vertical farming unit and hydroponic glasshouse, including opportunities for applied research, data collection and collaboration with industry partners.
There’ll also be plenty of opportunities to fine-tune your skills and put your knowledge into practice with industry placements, field trips and study tours, both in the UK and overseas. Plus a busy programme of industry events, conferences and external speakers.
Our innovative curriculum is built around the core principles of sustainability and conservation.
Together with our emphasis on practical skills and sound business sense, you’ll be well-prepared for the real-world challenges you’ll be facing.
During your agriculture degree, you’ll learn from expert staff with hands-on experience across a wide range of agricultural sectors as you explore the ethical, economic and social influences on UK and global agriculture and sustainability.
