ESA Angers : an ideal place to study the life sciences.

ESA is the largest institute of higher education for life sciences in France. It offers a wide range of courses in 10 major sectors of activity : agriculture, food processing, landscape management, environment, horticulture, viticulture, traditional products, retailing, trade and agribusiness management.

The BTS ACSE (Analyse, Conduite & Stratégie de l’Entreprise Agricole) – Farm Management Undergraduate Course at ESA completes a one-month farm placement abroad. Half of the students experienced the Irish dairy farming system during peak calving season, in February and March. A great time of year to experience a farm internship.

With the purpose of strengthening ties between international partners and companies, particularly for the I2FA program: LDC’s Polish operations, ESA organised a meeting at the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, University of Life Sciences in Lublin, Poland, in mid-February with Dr. Maciej Nastaj, Professor Dariusz Stasiak and Mariusz Kicinski from DROSED.

ESA Angers continues to monitor the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) and has convened a group of senior administrators to manage and lead the response to this outbreak. The group has been meeting regularly and are working with local and state health officials to closely monitor the situation. Since the situation continues to change – this webpage will be updated to provide information and advice to students and staff.

We were truly pleased to welcome Olha and Oksana, from OHAIT ONAFT – Odessa, Ukraine last week. They are specialised in viticulture – sensory analysis and oenology. We are glad that they have made the great choice of joining us by participating in the Erasmus+ MIC 18 – 20 project.
