From single master courses toward full master programs.

In 2003 BOVA rectors suggested that BOVA universities should take active steps in joint master program initiation moving from single master courses towards full master programs.

For this puorpose was established· Working group (WG)· consisting of representatives from each member university of BOVA and two representatives from NOVA UN.

At that time was proposed 5 academic areas for cooperation in the field of Joint Curricula, namely:

Economics and Agribusiness

Management of Biodiversity and Multifunctional Landscapes

Agroecology and Organic Farming

Bioinformatics

Veterinary medicine

More about investigations in the field of Joint Curricula made by BOVA WG you could  be find in the article by Lea Michelson (download the article).

In 2012 by the decision of BOVA RB was established the new BOVA Working group on Joint Master Education (WF JME) with the aim to initiate work towards JMP between BOVA members institutions. WG started activities in may 2012 and will present their findings by the end of the year 2012.
