生物科学（作物科学，高级学习） MPhil Biological Sciences (Crop Science) by advanced study

The MPhil in Biological Sciences provides students with an opportunity to undertake a period of study and research in Crop Science, one of the Faculty’s key research pathways. Global food security sits at a nexus. Do we continue with unsustainable practices benefiting farmers in high and middle income countries, while small-holders barely produce enough to support themselves? Or can we find a new way for agriculture that delivers food in an equitable and sustainable manner? Envisioning agriculture in 2050 needs to take into account the global population, the planets’ biodiversity, global climate change and the current inequities in the system. The MPhil in Crop Science will explore new ways of thinking about what agriculture should be in 2050 and how we might get to that point.
