Stella Lukste - Latvia

I do not work in the field of my study, however I've gained some soft skills that were important for my position such as time management, proactive thinking and a hands-on attitude. What I enjoyed most were the projects and research papers which were required in most classes. The accessibility of study materials (provided in the learning tool Moodle or by the lecturer in email) was also excellent.

The Czech University of Life Sciences provides everything which is required for a better learning environment. Personally, I like the proximity of the university accommodation to classrooms and laboratories. The university has the very experienced professors who can share and are willing to share their infinite knowledge to students. Additionally, the university has organized sport and leisure centers to keep students physically active. These and other qualities that I didn't mention here make CZU a very good study destination in Central Europe.

I gained a broader perspective about topics related to soil and water in agricultural applications. CZU and the programmes taught in English are very international, I had a great time studying with people with completely different backgrounds and professions with whom I made close ties. I also had the opportunity to learn more about academia and decided to pursue a career as PhD researcher at CZU. In my research I focus on the production of microalgae for aquaculture applications.

When I completed my bachelor´s degree in Agricultural Sciences, I wanted to study a master's degree with a specialization in environmentally-friendly agriculture as I was interested in food supply for the growing population without harming the environment. I found this programme through the university website and thought it would well match my interests.

The programme was taught by professors and lecturers experienced in their fields through collaboration between academics with world-class expertise in diverse aspects of advanced technologies. It allowed students to gain practical experience about a wide range of environmentally friendly technologies such as nutrient management technologies, irrigation technologies to save irrigation water, and soil conservation technologies. The study programme focused on studying soil and water protection and utilization of natural resources without bankrupting the existing resources. I also found the International Relations Office faculty coordinators very helpful, they truly cared about their students.

Studying at the Faculty of Agrobiology, Food and Natural Resources enabled me to develop personally and professionally. I had a chance to interact with international professors and students in the heart of Europe and was able to discover new cultures and traditions around Europe. As an international student, I have absolutely loved my student life and study programme and would highly recommend it to anyone thinking of applying.

I studied my BSc in Sustainable Use of Natural Resources and continued with a MSc in Natural Resource Management and Ecological Engineering (joint programme with BOKU, Vienna). What I loved about the programmes is that classes are split into Lectures and Seminars, so you get to put to practice what you learn and spend plenty of time in the laboratories. In my master´s studies I had the opportunity to go to Vienna for a semester, I got to experience new cultures and learning styles, which I believe really helped me with self-growth. I am now a PhD candidate at CZU, focusing on soil science and contamination, with the opportunity to put to knowledge everything I have learnt and pass on the knowledge to the students I teach. Also, we have llamas/Alpacas on campus, there’s no topping that!

Choosing the double degree program between the Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague and the University of Pisa in Italy was a deliberate pursuit of a comprehensive education in biosafety, food quality, sustainable agriculture, and food security. The decision was grounded in recognizing the unique strengths of each institution—CZU's expertise in sustainable agriculture and food security and Pisa's emphasis on biosafety and food quality. My summer on ERASMUS in Italy provided a glimpse into the academic and cultural vibrancy of the University of Pisa, solidifying my anticipation for the double degree journey focused on biosafety and food quality. Reflecting on this journey, I'm grateful for the invaluable experiences gained from both institutions. Prague and Pisa have shaped not only my academic identity but also fuelled personal growth. The double degree program is more than an educational pursuit; it's a voyage of self-discovery, leaving an indelible mark on my academic and personal narrative, with a commitment to biosafety and sustainable agriculture at its core.
