From June 4 to 6, 2018, our university was visited by students of the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Copenhagen. The 20 students from Denmark were from the fields of nutritional science, food technology and agricultural science and met here to learn the basics about viticulture and enology. It was a truly international group - participants came from Norway, Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland, Canada, China, Japan, Brazil and Denmark – and was accompanied by Prof. Dr. Torben Toldam-Anderson and Prof. Dr. Nils Arneborg. Geisenheim lecturers taught the visiting students about such subjects as grapevine varieties, grapevine breeding and cultivation, grapevine physiology, pests and diseases viticulture, microbiology and wine technology. The material learnt was then practically reinforced through excursions at the end of the visit.

Today's modern age is causing great changes in cultural landscapes. The use of landscapes through intensification of land use (agriculture, forestry, settlements, energy generation etc.) leads to ever more profound changes in these high-quality cultural landscapes. Characteristics such as historical elements and diversity, which determine value are irretrievably lost.
The Competence Centre Cultural Landscape works on these current social challenges of sustainable development of the cultural landscape in a cooperative network. To this end, we organise specialist events and further training and thus promote the development of professional standards.
The seventh ‘Road and Landscape’ conference will take place at Hochschule Geisenheim University on 4 September 2025. Under the title ‘Water as a key factor for a more sustainable development of transport infrastructure’, the event is dedicated to current challenges in dealing with water in road construction. In view of climate change and its effects on the water balance, water is increasingly becoming a strategic element in the focus of planning and construction. Experts from administration, science and practice will discuss technical solutions, nature conservation aspects and new forms of cooperation in presentations and examples. The conference is aimed at experts from road construction, water management, landscape conservation and related fields. It starts at 10:00 a.m., participation costs 50 euros and is possible with prior registration until 27 August. The venue is lecture theatre 50 on the campus of Hochschule Geisenheim University.
