Most Similar Schools Abroad
- If this school is on your list for agriculture and engineering, Kongju National University in South Korea deserves a comparison, because it is larger, enrolling about 12,000 students against roughly 7,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- For a study option in South Korea with a comparable spread of agriculture and engineering, Sunchon National University is the reference point: it is also a public institution and also offers doctoral programmes.
- Students considering a move abroad can look at National University of the South in Argentina, where agriculture, computer vision and engineering also form the core, and it covers marine science and chemistry as well, and is far larger, with about 22,000 students against roughly 7,000 here.
- In Ukraine, Podilsky State University teaches much the same core subjects, agriculture and engineering, and it also offers doctoral programmes and covers food science and process control as well.
- Lviv National Agrarian University, based in Ukraine, is built around agriculture and engineering much like this institution, and it is slightly larger, at about 8,000 students against roughly 7,000 here, and is also a public institution.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
