During the intensive program there will be lectures about important factors influencing the production chains. The students will have to participate in two PBL groups working with specific production chain problems.

The course includes lectures within the following areas:
-Introduction to chains
-Economical driving forces
-Product quality
-Case study, how to do
-Monitoring of the chains
-Biomonitoring
-Technical, economical and biological modelling
-Product handling in the chain
-Breeding in relation to chains and GMO's

-European development in horticulture

In the very last part of the intensive program the PBL groups will initiate a final PLB work which they will continue and finish at the home university by using the internet for communication.
 
Undervisningsform
The program consists of three major parts: Preparation at home, the intensive program in Denmark and reporting at home university. The program is a mixture of lectures, PBL group work and excursions.
