Finally, the acquisition of professional skills is at the heart of ISA’s agricultural engineering program. Internships are an important part of the curriculum all along the 5 years of study since they gradually apply all of the scientific and managerial skills acquired in the classroom. ISA professors supervise and evaluate each internship, therefore helping to ensure the acquisition of skills and consolidation of learning outcomes.
Due to its comprehensive and practical content, our Bioengineering and Agriculture program gives access to a wide range of career opportunities and jobs in the sectors of agriculture, food industry and environmental management.
