Agronomy at the University of Agriculture in Krakow is a master's degree taught in English in Kraków, Poland, lasting two years, with annual tuition of 2400.0 EUR. The programme is delivered as Interdisciplinary Bioeconomy Studies, responding to the dependence of economies on non-renewable resources and the environmental problems caused by a linear approach to production and consumption. It is built around the principles of environmental stewardship and sustainable resource utilization, with a focus on meeting societal needs through what is described as a circular bioeconomy, which favours biorefinery alternatives over conventional refinery products. The circular bioeconomy approach also emphasizes the efficient use of biological raw materials through a cascade approach, aiming to improve economic efficiency while reducing environmental impact, and it is presented as relevant to strengthening food security and supporting progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals. The curriculum is organized around three thematic blocks, the first of which is the socio-economic context, where students examine the contemporary economic and social landscape of the circular bioeconomy and develop tools to understand the principles behind production, industrial operations, and project execution. Agronomy and bioeconomy studies as a combined field bring together agricultural science, environmental policy, and economics, training graduates to think about food and resource systems in terms of sustainability as well as productivity. Graduates of programmes in this area typically move into roles connected to sustainable agriculture, environmental consultancy, resource management, and policy work within organizations focused on the transition toward low- and zero-emission economies.
