Agro-Food Projects
Praxisprojekte Agro-Food
Studierende bearbeiten in Projektteams Fragestellungen von Praxispartner:innen aus dem Agro-Food Bereich. Sie entwickeln wissenschaftlich fundierte, praxistaugliche Lösungsvorschläge und wenden dabei ihre im Studium sowie im Rahmen der Lehrveranstaltung erworbenen fachspezifischen, methodenspezifischen, sozialen und persönlichen Kompetenzen an.
Recent Advances in Entomology
Angewandte Entomologie
The aim of this course is to present and discuss recent achievements in research on insect-plant interactions. Topics range from functional ecology such as chemically-mediated interactions to sustainable pest management and further to biodiversity.
Behavioural Ecology of Insects
Verhaltensökologie der Insekten
Behavioural Ecology of InsectsThe objective of this course is to understand responses of insects to variable resources. This is exemplified by interactions between either a generalist or a specialist insect herbivore insect species and various host plants. A hypothesis is tested experimentally.
The colloquium “Challenges in Plant Sciences” is a core class of the Zurich-Basel Plant Science Center's PhD program. The colloquium introduces participants to the broad spectrum of plant sciences within the network. The course offers the opportunity to approach interdisciplinary topics in the field of plant sciences.
The colloquium introduces students to the disciplines in plant sciences and provides integrated knowledge from the molecular level to ecosystems and from basic research to applications, making use of the synergies between the different research groups of the PSC. The colloquium offers a unique chance to approach interdisciplinary topics as a challenge in the field of plant sciences.
Excursions (Block Days)
Integrierte Exkursionen (Blocktage)
Excursions are an ideal framework for combining theoretical concepts of the environmental study program with the real world. An intensive discussion of environmental science and political questions takes place during an excursion day. The students learn about the specifics and challenges of a region and deepen their knowledge in exchange with experts.
This course explores insect-plant interactions within agroecosystems, focusing on how agricultural practices influence insect populations and pest outbreaks. Key concepts in sustainable pest management will be covered, with an emphasis on integrated pest management (IPM) strategies.

In the module "Integrative Plant Sciences", which consists of the online course and seminar "Plant Response to Stress" (PRESS) and the colloquium "Challenges in Plant Sciences" , the focus lies on interdisciplinarity, ranging from molecular biology and biochemistry to ecosystem research, and an integrated understanding of plants in their environments.
Phytomedicine: Entomology
Phytomedizin: Entomologie
Applied Entomology: key insect pests and their antagonists in crops, arthropods in storage and public health systems, insect ecology, and pest control strategies
Plant Protection in the Tropics: Entomology
Pflanzenschutz in den Tropen: Entomologie
The focus is on understanding of the specific challenges of plant protection in tropical and subtropical crops with their rich insect fauna. Sustainable pest management including recent research contributions is discussed for different types of agroecosystems, ranging from citrus to cassava, rice and cotton.
