As a public institution under the French Ministry of Agriculture's authority, Bordeaux Sciences Agro collaborates with other similar institutions in France and abroad through a network of higher agronomic institutes, notably in the framework of joint courses. For 50 years, Bordeaux Sciences Agro has been able to forge privileged relationships with companies. These ties supplement our institution's courses by helping increase the professionalism of the subjects taught and by fostering the graduates' professional futures by ensuring that the courses are suited to the real world. Bordeaux Sciences Agro is a public higher education institute and agronomic research facility under the French Ministry of Agriculture, Agrifood and Forestry. Founded in 1962, it trains 600 students every year who follow Agronomy degree courses in their initial education as students or apprentices, or one of the six Master's degrees co-accredited by universities in Bordeaux or by national partners, and in the specialized Master's degree accredited by the 'Conférence des Grandes Ecoles.' The establishment was created under the name of 'ENITA de Bordeaux.' A higher education establishment offered intermediary 3-year Agronomy degrees after a specific preparatory course dispensed in agricultural secondary schools. It did not have a research vocation. This is a plus for the estate, which benefits from being in the school's cutting-edge scientific environment. In particular, Bordeaux Sciences Agro aims to make this urban vineyard into a showcase for best practices in economically efficient and environmentally friendly wine growing. The entire Bordeaux Sciences Agro scientific community contributes to the 'Luchey Agro-ecologic Project.' Fifty years after it was founded, ENITA de Bordeaux changed its name to become 'Bordeaux Sciences Agro.' This name change was part of a progressive coming together of national engineering trades schools (ENITs) and the former national higher agronomy schools (ENSAs). The separation between these two groups of schools had progressively been narrowing since the 1990s with creating a common competitive exam for schools of agronomy and the creation of a single body of professors and researchers. A new position, new impetus, and new brand name! Opening of international courses with the Creation of the Master of Business and Sciences in Vineyard and Winery Management. The Schools of Engineering's International Masters degree is taught entirely in English and is a response to Bordeaux Sciences Agro's strategic decision to increase its international appeal in one of the fields of excellence for which the Bordeaux site is a global reference. This MBS aims to offer original courses in response to demand from the wine sector for wine estate managers abroad, against a backdrop of the strong global growth of the sector with the arrival on the wine market of new countries with very high potential in production, consumption, and investment (China, India, Russia, etc.). The plans to create the 'school forest' on the Agreaux estate are being conducted jointly by the Jacques and Françoise Lescouzères Foundation, under the aegis of the Institut de France, and by Bordeaux Sciences Agro in partnership with the members of the Training Platform. This concept corresponds to a model that is currently on the rise internationally. It consists of providing teaching and research projects in real-life conditions on a forest estate. Bordeaux Sciences Agro works with 40 permanent teaching staff, including 15 professors, experts in several domains: Agronomy, Animal Sciences, Biology, Economics, Ecology, Botanical Sciences, Viticulture, Oenology, Forestry, Processing Engineering, Environment Engineering, Management. Professors carry out academic teaching missions as well as research and knowledge transfer activities. Each professor is a member of one of the 14 Joint Research Units and belongs to one of the six Research & Academic Training Departments. You will complete your enrolment at the 'Direction des Etudes' office (the Department of Academic Studies) when you arrive. You will then be provided with your student ID card, enrolment certificate, and internet access codes. When you arrive at the University, you will receive your Aquipass card. This is your student passport. It is your source of ID and will allow you to use the many services on offer: checking out books at the library, eating at the university restaurants, etc. The electronic card system also allows you to make individual purchases.

It is a 60-year old state-funded institution of learning situated in Brgy. Piano, San Ildefonso, Bulacan. At present, the College has two campuses, both located in the 3rd District of Bulacan. The Main Campus is located in Brgy. Piano, San Ildefonso, while the satellite campus was established in Brgy. Sapang Bulak, Doña Remedios Trinidad (DRT) in 2005, which is aptly called the DRT Campus. At BASC, we believe that every student, staff, and client brings a unique aspiration. All are welcomed and encouraged to carry out accomplishments they feel can play a part in self, community, country, and international progress. The Bulacan Agricultural State College is perceived and acknowledged as an outstanding higher education institution with an affordable and excellent education.

It shall provide for and address ever-changing educational needs and services for those seeking to expand their intellectual horizons. It shall address national and international issues and be established as a significant presence and contributor to the global community's progress. BASC believes that Excellence and Productivity are ideals nurtured and promoted in this academic community, ensuring adequate preparation and delivery of services for its people's general welfare. The Bulacan Agricultural State College (BASC) is located in San Ildefonso, Bulacan, 66 kilometers north of Metro Manila. It lies along a municipal road, immediately connected to the Student Handbook - 6 - Manila Cagayan National road, where several land transportation companies ply their route. Established in 1952, the Institution started as the Plaridel Community Agricultural High School (PCAHS) located in Brgy. Bing, Plaridel, Bulacan. Soon after, PCAHS was renamed Bulacan Provincial Agricultural High School (BPAHS), with about 100 students. Growth in the student population occurred as students arrived not just from local communities but also in other municipalities. On 20 June 1953, its name was again changed to Bulacan National Agricultural High School (BNAHS) by Republic Act 948. On 8 June 1955, then Pres. Ramon DF. Magsaysay signed Proclamation 163, reserving around 192.5 hectares of the Buenavista Estate for BNAHS. By Republic Act 2416, BNAHS was converted to Bulacan National Agricultural School (BuNAS) on 21 June 1959. In 1960, the two-year Associate in Agriculture program became part of the curricular offerings of BuNAS, the first tertiary education program offered in the school, which eventually led to the offering of the Bachelor of Science in Agriculture degree with majors in Agronomy and Animal Husbandry. Cognizant of the general agriculture education and training needs of Bulakeños at the time, Hon. Ricardo C. Silverio, then-Representative of the 3rd District of Bulacan, authored House Bill No. 2389, which proposed an expanded educational program for BuNAS. With the bilateral approval of both Houses, then Pres. Fidel V. Ramos signed Republic Act 8548 officially converting BuNAS into a chartered state college known as the Bulacan National Agricultural State College (BASC) on 24 February 1998. Over time, its name was changed to Bulacan Agricultural State College (BASC) by Republic Act 9249 signed by Former President Gloria M. Arroyo on 19 February 2004. Situated between the country's capital Metro Manila and the Province of Nueva Ecija, it opened its doors in 1952, and 60 years later, it continues to be devoted to discovering answers to the profound challenges of this generation and training students for leadership in today's multifaceted world. Furthermore, BASC has grown to be a regional leader in higher education and remains recognized for offering excellent agricultural education, interdisciplinary partnerships, and innovative research programs. The College still supports competent collaborators from different backgrounds to work together with the Administration in the direction of feasible targets. It advocates alliance and modernization across conventional hindrances of education, generating exceptional individuals who pass on their mark to the world. Most of all, BASC continues to uphold its pledge to students, viable research, and education. Like every distinguished educational Institution, BASC equally pondered and operated upon the bigger world. Its groundwork later became potent and creative. Personnel, students, alumni, partners, stakeholders, and allies have united this grand educational endeavor. BASC would not be BASC without their dreams, service, and allegiance. Its educational calling is to help students coach them with leadership and problem-solving proficiency and principles of quality, moral conduct, the responsibility to humanity, and faithfulness to their potential jobs. Everything is being done to train students for sensible global citizenship and leadership by combining sustainability, public responsibility, and esteem for varied outlooks throughout their curriculum while acquiring deep professional competence.

SLU is a young university with a long history. It was founded in 1977 out of the agricultural, forestry, veterinary university colleges, the Veterinary School at Skara, and the Forestry School at Skinnskatteberg. SLU develops knowledge about using natural, biological land, and water resources sustainably. Education, research, and environmental monitoring and assessment are pursued at some thirty locations all over the country. The central campuses are Alnarp, Umeå, and Uppsala. SLU develops the understanding and sustainable use and management of biological natural resources. This is achieved by research, education, and environmental monitoring and assessment in collaboration with the surrounding community. SLU is a world-class university in the fields of life and environmental sciences. We dare to question established knowledge through critical thinking and an open, inquiring perspective. Our university produces world-class research. We ask the big questions about nature, animals, and life itself. Our knowledge forms the foundation of a sustainable, thriving, and better world. SLU values express the organization's common fundamental values. These guide everyday life by describing the starting point for your activity, for contacts with the outside world, and how we behave towards each other and others. All SLU employees are included in these values. The fundamental values are: Scientific approach Creativity Openness Responsibility. In addition to these four fundamental values, there are six fundamental principles: Democracy Legality Objectivity, factuality, and equal treatment Free formation of opinions Respect Efficiency and service. SLU is an attractive and stimulating workplace for our current and future employees. SLU is an attractive university for students and offers courses and programs of high quality with societal relevance. SLU's researchers have adequate access to research infrastructure, which allows ground-breaking, excellent research. SLU's collaboration will benefit society and be appreciated by stakeholders while the quality of our education, research, and EMA will be raised. Employees and students will know of and feel a commitment to SLU's activities and take joint responsibility for developing activities. Our activities affect the environment directly through our use of resources, travel, emissions, etc. However, we can also influence the environment indirectly through our unique expertise in the area. SLU contributes to ecologically, socially, and financially sustainable development. Environmental thinking and environmental aspects are integrated into all decision-making and are part of all activities within SLU's organizational units. SLU contributes to Agenda 2030 with innovative research, research-focused teaching, environmental monitoring and assessment (EMA), and more. Around 50 Swedish public authorities have come together to help bring about the transition needed in society. SLU's mission statement is closely linked to these global goals, and SLU was the first university to sign the joint declaration of intent. SLU's public sector role, which initially only concerned the land-based sector, is broader and more developed these days. The goal to clarify the consequences of various trade-offs between production and sustainable goals dovetails with Agenda 2030, which emphasizes the importance of integrated approaches and solutions to meet the 17 goals. Our public sector role also has a global aspect. Our areas of responsibility are connected to societal challenges such as food, water and energy supply, urbanization, climate change, the transition to a bio-based economy, etc. Collaboration with low-income countries is present within all research areas, and 20 percent of SLU's peer-reviewed scientific publications have co-authors from universities in low-income countries or from international research institutes that work with global development. SLU is the only Swedish university with a global development strategy. SLU Global develops these operations, among other things, by thematically prioritizing broad collaboration within SLU and with external parties. SLU's courses and programs at undergraduate and Master's levels comprise professional programs that cannot be found at any other Swedish higher education institution. Students can become agronomists, horticulturists, forest officers, veterinarians, veterinary nurses, and landscape architects. These courses and programs are essential for the national skill supply. SLU also co-runs two civil engineering programs and offers several Master's programs relating to its strong research domains. The number of international Master's students is high, and this contributes to global continuing professional development.

The RAU has achieved IS014001 - the international standard for environmental management - a regularly audited structured system to protect the environment. As part of this, we have created an Environmental Action Plan outlining ambitious targets and a program for achieving these. We also have an Environmental & Sustainability Policy, which is signed off by the Vice-Chancellor. The Sustainability team are provided with resources and a stable budget to undertake this work. The Royal Agricultural College (RAC), now the Royal Agricultural University (RAU), is the oldest agricultural college in the English-speaking world and has been at the forefront of agricultural education since 1845. "To be a center of excellence for developing the leaders of tomorrow in sustainable development relating to the rural economy, built environment and food chain, and to provide leadership regionally, nationally and internationally through its education, research, and knowledge exchange activities." The Royal Agricultural University is a limited company and a registered charity. The directors and trustees are all non-executive. There are between 12 and 18 independent governors appointed to serve for up to three terms of three years on the Governing Council. The Governing Council can also appoint up to five co-opted governors who provide unique skills to the Council or work on particular projects. Three elected staff representatives and two Student Union Officers also sit on Governing Council but are not directors or trustees. Beneath the Governing Council are a range of sub-committees that either report to it directly or through the Senior Management Group. Governors chair these sub-committees. Enterprise With a strong entrepreneurial focus, we are committed to enhancing our students' real-life business experiences. From student societies to organized workshops and awards, the RAU provides students with the opportunity to develop their business ideas and receive tailored support. Budding entrepreneurs can benefit from their lecturers' bountiful knowledge and experience, and the robust industry links the University has carefully cultivated over the years. Your Carbon Management Plan commits the RAU to a 34% decrease in CO2 by 2020, signed off by the Governing Council. To achieve this, we have invested in a range of renewables on campus, including a 500kW biomass boiler powering all lecture blocks and our new accommodation blocks. This is fuelled by locally sourced woodchips and has reduced the University's carbon footprint by over 100t/CO2 per year. We were fortunate to benefit from a grant to support this from the South West Regional Development Agency, delivered by Regen SW. We also have several solar photovoltaic arrays, rainwater harvesting systems, and air source heat pumps. Our building developments incorporate energy efficiency measures, such as LED lighting and natural ventilation. Residential carbon emissions made up 26% of our total emissions in 2015/16. Sustainability and environmental matters are a core element of our teaching, research, and consultancy activities. Much of our expertise and teaching relates to the management of natural resources and property, and, as such, sustainability underpins much of what we do. You will learn about different principles of sustainability relevant to your course and develop holistic skills such as long-term planning, critical reflection, and lateral thinking. Please take a look at our Student Sustainability Opportunities page for more information. RAU sustainability is incorporated throughout the University community, including sustainability inductions for new staff, engagement with trade union representatives, and staff and student champion schemes. If you want to find out more about this, look at our Student Sustainability Opportunities page or contact the sustainability team.

The Royal Agricultural College (RAC), now the Royal Agricultural University (RAU), is the oldest agricultural college in the English-speaking world and has been at the forefront of agricultural education since 1845. "To be a center of excellence for developing the leaders of tomorrow in sustainable development relating to the rural economy, built environment and food chain, and to provide leadership regionally, nationally and internationally through its education, research, and knowledge exchange activities." The Royal Agricultural College (RAC), now the Royal Agricultural University (RAU), was the first agricultural college in the English-speaking world. In 1842, the seeds were sown at a meeting of the Fairford and Cirencester Farmers Club. Concerned by the lack of government support for education, Robert Jeffreys-Brown addressed the meeting on the 'Advantages of a Specific Education for Agricultural Pursuits.' A prospectus was circulated, a general committee was appointed, and Earl Bathurst was elected President. Funds were raised by public subscription, with much of the support coming from the day's wealthy landowners and farmers. There was no Government support. Earl Bathurst leased a site to build the College, and construction in the Victorian Gothic style began in April 1845. Queen Victoria granted the Royal Charter to the College in the same year, and Sovereigns have been Patrons ever since, visiting in every reign. His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, became President in 1982. The first 25 students were admitted in September 1845, and the following year student numbers increased to 108. Many early students went on to careers in Colonial Agricultural Administrations and the Diplomatic and Foreign Service. From its early days, the College was staffed with innovators and pioneers and impacted farming practice and agricultural science. In 1931, Professor R ("Bobby") Boutflour, CBE, became Principal. Professor Boutflour was mostly responsible for raising the prestige of the College to its current high standards. It was said of Boutflour, on his death in 1961, that he was "... the most capable, colorful and forceful character that ever adorned the fields of agriculture". Frank Garner, the next Principal, enhanced the educational standards, and Sir Emrys Jones, his successor, was responsible for the Hosier Library and the Frank Parkinson Lecture Theatre. Vic Hughes, whose service to the College is one of the longest recorded, uplifted the teaching standards by establishing the many degree programs that the University can now offer. The first modern degree program, started in 1984, was in co-operation with Reading University - a BSc (Hons) degree in Rural Land Management. Subsequently, as the RAC, the University reclaimed its right to award degrees from the Privy Council. The RAC had been independent of government control since its foundation until 2001 when it first received funding from the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE), allowing it to widen access to its courses to students of all backgrounds. In 2013, the Privy Council awarded the College full University Status in recognition of its provision as a higher education institution. The Royal Agricultural University will continue to develop teaching and research in agriculture, agri-business, equine, food, and land & property management. The University motto is 'Arvorum Cultus Pecorumque,' a quote from Virgil's Georgics, it means 'Caring for the Fields and the Beasts'. What more appropriate maxim could there be for a University which, in every facet of its teachings, now incorporates a broader understanding of our countryside? Founded in 1845, the RAU has a long-standing reputation in learning, research, and consultancy. Undergraduate and postgraduate study is managed and taught by experienced staff and specialist consultants in an exciting learning environment in which our students play a pivotal role. Our unique portfolio includes disciplines as varied as Rural Land Management, Real Estate, Business, Agriculture, Food, Environment, and Equine matched by an extensive choice of research areas at the Masters and Doctoral level.
