The modern world is changing rapidly, and agriculture is evolving with it. Today, the industry needs a new type of specialist – one capable of working within the ESG framework, understanding the principles of sustainable development, using eco-friendly technologies, and implementing innovations.
Russian universities are already offering educational programs that prepare such professionals. Among them are Stavropol State Agrarian University and the Agrarian-Technological Institute of the Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia (RUDN), where students can pursue in-demand specialties ranging from agronomy, ecology, and veterinary science to biotechnology and engineering.
Students learn not only in classrooms but also in real-world settings – fields, farms, and enterprises. They operate modern machinery and equipment, perform veterinary check-ups and animal care, test agricultural technologies, and analyze soil conditions – turning theory into practice.
Russian agricultural science seeks effective solutions, works with both classical and molecular breeding, and develops environmentally friendly technologies. University laboratories actively conduct research: creating new plant varieties, studying soil microorganisms, and advancing biotechnological methods.
Many students receive job offers even during their internships, as enterprises are eager to recruit young talents before graduation.
The knowledge gained in Russia is in demand worldwide: it equips specialists to tackle key challenges, from food security to climate change. Graduates can develop agriculture in their home countries, launch their own agritech startups, or build a career in Russia.
