Astana, Kazakhstan, Alliance Française, Wednesday March 28: 14 kazakhs students are taking the DELF A1 test, to study at ESA.

20-25 admissions per year in a Master’s degree fully sponsored by international companies leaders in the field of the Food Industry, Agriculture, Seed production or Agribusiness. Students study half the time at ESA and work half the time at the company. A hands-on, practical experience!

ESA’s historic building will be converted into a venue for students in 2018, incorporating a language resource centre.

Organised by ESA and the researchers from the Changes in Agriculture Chair, the ‘smart rural’ events – #esaconnect – are an opportunity to analyse the changes that are taking place in the professions and trades, from a sociological and economic angle, and the new forms of collaboration and cooperation in agriculture involving the use of digital media.

Sensorial analysis uses our senses to characterise a product instead of instrumental measurements. Consumer testing collects individual opinions and is an indispensable tool in the agri-food sector. ESA in Angers has long understood the importance of a sensory analysis platform. Senso’Veg, is the only such platform in the area and has already established an excellent reputation.
