Bioeconomy

The inter- and transdisciplinary approach of the study program encourages critical thinking, and graduates have the skills necessary to develop and execute diverse activities within a biobased economy. In particular, “Hohenheim bioeconomists” are able to:

    plan, assess, and analyze the production and processing of renewable resources;

    coordinate the production of biobased products, adapted to specific locations;

    consider the interconnectedness and interdependencies of different utilization pathways for biomass;

    understand the key technologies used for the production of biobased products and advance their economic use;

    consider the societal requirements for biobased products and their production methods;

    organize the market launch of new biobased products;

    understand how (new) biobased products are embedded in value chains from micro- and macroeconomic perspectives;

    coordinate the cooperation among different stakeholders in the development of biobased value chains.
