Introduction
Sustainability for nature and mankind
The growing civilization faces an extreme challenge regarding its sustainable development. The natural resources are under pressure which never happened before. Management of resources that serve mankind is highly needed. A failure in the proper use of natural resources means a future failure of civilization. A three-year bachelor´s study programme aims to teach students how to manage the sustainability of natural resources exploitation together with mankind development. The main focus of our programme is the exploitation of natural resources tightly connected to food production. Soil and water are the key players in the story.
