    The goal Acquiring knowledge about new methods of plant water status monitoring, to use new techniques and methods of irrigation. The students should learn how to set up experimental design based on scientific principles, apply appropriate equipment, techniques and methods to assess the technical performance of irrigation systems, the use of information technology and scientific literature.
    The outcome The student should master the skill of recognizing new technologies and methods in the field of irrigation, yet to pose the question of interest for research, to find and analyze adequate scientific literature, then set working hypotheses and select adequate research methods from the field irrigation.
