Course Overview

The PgCert Integrated Pest, Weed and Disease Management at Harper Adams University is a postgraduate programme designed for postgraduate students passionate about sustainable food production. Based in Newport, England, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 1-year full-time and part-time structure. The continuing production of safe, wholesome food in an environmentally sensitive manner is a major political issue for national governments and internationally within global commodity markets. A report produced by the UK Cabinet Office in 2008 (Food Matters: Towards a Strategy for the 21st Century) predicts that the global population will rise to 9Bn by 2050 rising from a current estimate of nearly 6.8Bn. This increase in population size will substantially increase the demand for food. A minimum ielts score of 6.5 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 75% student satisfaction rating, a median graduate salary of £27,000 within three years, and a 100% continuation rate.
