The Program

The ACICIS Agriculture Semester Program, hosted by IPB University in Bogor, allows students to take units in a number of internationally accredited study programs, including units in agribusiness, agronomy and horticulture, plant protection, forestry, food science and technology, and animal production technology. With classes taught in English, from an Indonesian perspective, students will be well-placed to become leaders in international agricultural development. Students also undertake a professional placement (internship) at an Indonesian host organisation to complement their formal studies. Host organisations will likely include global research organisations, local and international NGOs and agricultural production companies.

No background in Indonesian language is required to participate in this program. More information on this study option is available here: https://www.acicis.edu.au/programs/semester/agriculture-semester-program-asp/.
