About the faculty

The Faculty of Agriculture Kiel was founded in 1946. Nunquam otiosus (never idle), is the motto on the seal of office, supplemented by plow and ear of corn as a symbol of agriculture.

The Faculty of Agriculture educated initially agronomists, later qualified agronomists. Through the establishment of the course "Nutrition and Household Economics" the Faculty was substantially expanded in 1970.
