Practice is one of the main concepts in all Aeres University of Applied Sciences courses. The university uses the educational model of competency based education. We teach students to develop professionality in close cooperation with private enterprises, the public sector and individual farmers and entrepreneurs. In this cooperation, professionals give guest lectures, are involved in the assessment of students and provide input for the (re-)design of our modules. Students cooperate in different (inter)national research projects and work together with scientists form the department of Applied Research. The university also provides opportunities for students to run an enterprise in their field of education. At the university farm students can run their own student enterprises where they can practice their farm management skills.
