Extensive, in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge and understanding of research in the relevant field of science, the latest research technologies and equipment, their application, processing of research results and demonstration opportunities.

Skills - the ability to use the acquired knowledge in the development of a master's thesis: analytical analysis of the situation, evaluation and development of research methodology, creation of new knowledge based on the performed research, summarizing, evaluating and interpreting the results. Ability to defend and scientifically substantiate their decisions in solving engineering problems.

Competence - is able to work independently with engineering calculations and analysis of various complexity and scope, to perform experimental and analytical research in relation to the chosen topic.

If you want to get a high qualification, good job offers and expand your knowledge in the field of engineering, this study program is for you. You can choose to study in four sub-programmes: “Vehicles and Service”, “Agricultural Technologies and techniques”, “Energetics” and “Machine Designing and Manufacturing”

Master's students in agricultural engineering occupy leading positions in transport and agricultural machinery operating and trading companies, energy and machine-building industry companies. Graduates of the program are in demand on the labor market and often combine work responsibilities with continuing education.

The aim of the studies is to prepare comprehensively educated young scientists, pedagogues, entrepreneurs, public administration and local government specialists who would be able to continue their doctoral studies, decide independently, think creatively and promote the further development of Latvian engineering sciences.
