The school is located in the Danubeland Region, the most important agricultural area in Slovakia with a huge reserve of groundwater. It is recognised as the region with a high potential in the field of renewable energy and environmental technology, but we are only at the beginnings. Our students learn about the production of energy from renewable sources, we cooperate with research centres, associations and companies focused on using agricultural biomass, producing biofuels and applying environmental technologies in agricultural entrepreneurship.
