Knowledge and understanding

Students must have acquired knowledge and understanding of the specificity of the agrifood system, with reference to the complexity of the organization of the supply system and consumer expectations in terms of product safety and quality. In particular, they must know and be able to understand the complexity of the relationships that are established between companies operating in supply chains and with their reference environment, the role of the territory in the creation of value for consumers, and the policies of the European Union for the support of the agricultural sector and the protection of quality.

In addition, an in-depth study of some major marketing concepts and the ability to apply them to specific cases is required.

Applying knowledge and understanding

Students should be able to appropriately and critically apply acquired knowledge to analyze, understand and apply marketing principles to businesses in the agribusiness system.

Making judgements

Students should be able to connect in integrated and unified patterns the knowledge of the different elements acquired during the course and to deal with the complexity of real problems independently and with their own judgment.

Communication skills

Students should acquire clear, effective, and precise communication skills through a good command of the vocabulary of the discipline imparted during the Course.
