Key learning outcomes The doctoral study Special Plant Production offers students an extension of theoretical and practical knowledge and knowledge of plant production with emphasis on biological, genetic, physiological and ecological aspects in the field of technological procedures of growing field crops and forage crops, plant breeding and seed production, plant protection and quality and processing of plant products. Through the setting up of an individual study plan, the study enables the student to focus on a specific area. In addition to passing the compulsory and selected examinations, completing internships at foreign and domestic institutions and fulfilling other obligations of the individual study plan, the aim of the study is to prepare the student for highly professional and scientific research activities by solving the dissertation topic, publishing the achieved results and participating in the teaching and scientific research activities of the training institute.
