Viticulture and Enology

Innovative robotics in the vineyard, the most modern production processes as well as traditional techniques in the cellar and the direct transfer of research findings in the practice characterize the degree program. Budding enologists receive the basic tools for the growing and development of high quality wines as well as their sales. Through many internships and projects they will have the opportunity to gain career-relevant experience. The expertise in organic viticulture in Geisenheim as well as in vine cultivation and climate change research provides the students with a real increase in knowledge – and so does the international network.

For all teachers one thing is in the foreground: They prepare the students for the challenges of everyday working life in a targeted and practical way. The students get the tools for the installation and removal of high-quality wines and their sales at hand. In many internships and projects they have the opportunity to gain professional experience at home or abroad.

The dual entry into the bachelor's degree in viticulture and oenology is also possible at the Geisenheim University of Applied Sciences. Interested parties can begin their studies parallel to their apprenticeship and reduce their training time to 18 to 24 months. The model is flexible and can be customized.
