Examples of student projects

Students of Wageningen University & Research (WUR) can contribute to solving your problem in various ways. For example, they develop visions for the future, conduct interviews, organise workshops, give presentations, design calculation models and write feasibility studies.

The assignments that students can solve are very varied. This depends on the subject on which students work for the assignment. For example, it may be a (relatively) short literature study, a multidisciplinary consultancy assignment, an extensive study (literature and data collection) or a short practical study.

  • Geographical Ecosystems Mapping for Development of a Regenerative Farming Community in the Eastern Cape

    Students from the course “Remote Sensing and GIS-Integration” collaborated with Kidlinks Small Farm Incubator (KSFI) to identify community clusters, locate vital farming resources, and plan the development of farming hubs effectively – by means of a mapping project.

    I was really happy with both project collaborations. The students did an exceptional job and they went above and beyond my expectations.

  • Web 72 Anatoth 239x159.jpg

    Designing an edible food forest in southern France

    Association Anatoth in Pernes-les-Fontaines, France, partnered with WUR students to design a 600m2 edible forest garden. Students performed thorough research and delivered a list of indigenous plant species, an implementation and management plan for the forest, and a map of the area.

    It is a privilege to have a group of Master students putting all their work into a project for several weeks, doing all the research and coming up with solutions.
