SAFE - School of Agricultural, Forest, Food, and Environmental Sciences
About the School
SAFE - the School of Agricultural, Forest, Food, and Environmental Sciences was established in 2012, when four pre-existing Departments merged into it: its academic and research staff builds on over thirty years' worth of expertise and excellence in the fields of Agricultural, Veterinary as well as Biological Science.
Studying at SAFE
The School of Agricultural, Forest, Food, and Environmental Sciences currently offers three undergraduate (BSc) programmes, three graduate (MSc) programmes, and an international Master's programme.
Starting from academic year 2018-19, SAFE will be also offering a double-degree programme to students participating in the Erasmus+ student mobility programme: a partnership agreement between the University of Basilicata and Spain's Universidad de Extremadura allows students who will have gained 30 ECTS credits to be awarded two MSc degrees: an MSc in Food Science and Technology from the University of Basilicata, and a Máster in Gestión de Calidad y Trazabilidad en Alimentos de Origen Vegetal from the University of Extremadura.
