Campus & Career: Make a professional start in agricultural engineering Agriculture is one of the most secure employers of the future. After all, seven billion people need to be fed each day. Without agriculture and the proper farm equipment, this would not be possible. Campus & Career at AGRITECHNICA, the world’s largest trade fair for agricultural machinery and equipment, gives you an insight into opportunities and prospects in agriculture. You don’t need to come from an agricultural background to work in this exciting sector of the economy. Take the opportunity to inform yourself comprehensively about different jobs and career opportunities, to benefit from the careers guidance available and to make valuable contacts. Campus & Career offers something for everyone: from new entrants who are looking for an apprenticeship or a course of study through to established professionals who would like to take further training or to change career direction.
