Objectives
The 2nd year Master's AAE aims to train future executives in the field of agriculture and its management in line with agroecology principles. These scientific executives will need to be able to generate knowledge on the functioning of agroecosystems at different scales, from the plot to the territory, as well as methods for managing them. They will go on to become actors in multi-disciplinary design and innovation processes to support the implementation of the ecological transition in agriculture and ensure that agricultural production can meet the multiple challenges facing it.
