    The Agricultural University of Iceland (AUI) was founded on 1 January 2005 with a merger of three long-standing institutions: The Agricultural University at Hvanneyri, the Agricultural Research Institute, with its headquarters in Reykjavík, and the Horticultural College at Reykir.
    It is an educational and research institution in the field of agriculture, land resources, and environmental sciences. The main focus is on natural sciences, i.e., natural history, the conservation and sustainable use of land and animal resources, including traditional agriculture, horticulture and forestry, environmental and landscape planning, restoration sciences, and sustainable development, The AUI awards B.Sc. degrees in these fields, and is entitled to award MS and Ph.D. degrees as well as providing vocational and continuing education.
    The overall role of AUI is to pursue high-quality education in our academic fields supported by competitive, nationally, and internationally oriented research programs. We aim to be an active participant in the sustainable development of the Icelandic society and represent the country in the global forum in our academic fields.
    AUI plays an essential role in its local community and for the country as a whole as it is a vital pillar for rural development in Iceland. It has a unique position among universities in Iceland; it has several sites distributed in rural communities around the country and offers proximity to the people it serves and the natural resources on which they base their livelihood. The Agricultural University of Iceland is a proud Diploma Supplement (DS) Label holder from 2010
    The DS-Label is extremely important for AUI students as it makes it easier to apply for further studies abroad. In contrast, the DS-Label is a certification from the European Union stating that the school diplomas meet the European Union requirements. The certification is valid until 2013.
    DS is a supplement to the diploma students stating an exact description of the studies that certificate testifies. Also, in the Annex brief description of the Icelandic educational system and its structure. Certificates appendix is published in English and students free of charge.
