Introduction
1 About the Faculty of Engineering
The Faculty of Engineering (till 31.12.1995 the Faculty of Agricultural Mechanisation) of the Latvia University of Agriculture (LLA – till 1991 the Latvian Agricultural Academy) was founded in 1944 having one speciality – agricultural mechanisation. In 1959 the speciality of automobiles and automobile fleet was introduced (since 1994 the speciality of autotransport), in 1989 – the speciality of agricultural electrification and automation (since 1994 – agricultural energetics), in 1991 – the speciality of food engineering was introduced. In 2002 a separate professional bachelor study program in Agricultural Energetics was established.
Five institutes form the structure of the faculty: Education and Home Economics, Agricultural Energetics, Agricultural Machinery, Mechanics and Motor Vehicles. In 1997 a part of the researchers from the privatised former State Animal Breeding Mechanisation Scientific and Technical Centre Rāmava moved to the faculty and were included in the structure of the Institute of Agricultural Machinery. On January 1, 1998 the former Latvian State Agricultural Mechanisation and Energetics Scientific Research Institute became a part of the faculty as a legal person in the structure of the Institute of Agricultural Machinery.
At the beginning of the academic year 2003/2004 at the faculty there were in total 1105 undergraduate students, 536 of them being full–time and 569 part–time students, 341 Master degree students, 128 of them being full–time and 213 part–time students, 23 post–graduate students, including 13 full–time and 10 part-time students. On 01.09.2003 there were 78 teacher posts at the faculty, 15 of them – Professors, 7 Associate Professors, 22 Docents, 26 Lecturers and 8 Assistants.
During the existence of the faculty 5894 people have graduated from it. The number of graduates in programs and subprograms is as follows: agricultural machinery – 4250 (including 674 part–time graduates), autotransport – 1252 (527), agricultural energetics –161 (38), food engineering – 18, entrepreneurship in agroservice – 13 and home economics and education – 135 (33). 59 people have graduated from the engineering Master studies and 266 – from the pedagogics Master studies.

1.3 Operational issues of the study program implementation
1.3.1 Study program content
Overall size of the second level professional bachelor study program is 160 credit points (CP). Overall study time is four years for full time students, and five years for part time students. Each study year has two semesters (20 CP each), and each semester has 16 study weeks.
Full study plans for full – time and part – time studies, and breakdown of study time and type of estimation used are presented in the Appendix 4. It is planned that 16 contact hours (lectures, laboratory and practical studies) make one study week. Remaining 24 hours are used by students for independent studies (home assignments, quizzes, tests, projects).
The main blocks of the study program, including weight for each particular subject in CP and in per cent are presented in Table 1.

program was designed to strengthen and widen knowledge in basic study subjects, allowing to understand and study the core courses for the professional development and for understanding IT use in the energetics field, as well as to study courses and subjects of particular specialization. The volume of core courses and subjects is 61,6%, volume of selective subjects is 14,7%, which is good enough to make students own specialization in the chosen field of studies and to master profession as well as possible.
The block named “The main professional specialization subjects” includes two specializations – “energy supply” and “economics in energetics”, with 17,5 CP volume.
Study process includes 9 course projects and course works, 25 exams, 39 tests, defended 4 on-job training reports, and development and defense of bachelor thesis.
According to the study program on-job training places are in several Latvia enterprises, which agreed to participate in the study program (list presented in the Appendix 8).
Split of assessment presented in the Table 2. Table 2
Split of assessment in the study program
Split between assessment in each study year is almost equal, excluding the 3 rd study year, when there is more assessment and load, and one must take in account the number of course projects and course works during 4th study year. During the 8th semester (second part of the 4th study year) students have on-job engineer level training, which is devoted for bachelor thesis development.
On-job training (26 weeks) in different enterprises working in the field of energetics, and bachelor theses development allow to assure the readiness of the graduate to fit to the profession “Engineer of Agricultural Power Engineering” with the 5th qualification level.
1.3.2 International comparison and proof prove of study program actualization
Professional bachelor in Agricultural Power Engineering study program was developed on the basis of the existing academic study program which was tested for a long time and was accepted by the market and academic personnel. Speciality of Agricultural Power Engineering was created 14 years ago in order to meet the high demand for professionals in energetics field especially in countryside and small towns. Graduates of Power Engineering are able to compete in the labour market. Research shows that demand for the graduates in this field is still higher than LUA can supply. Currently the graduates of 9 graduations of this speciality are working in regional electricity or heat supply networks and companies, operate as specialists and managers in state and private companies, are managers and professionals in different positions of the state owned energy company “Latvenergo”, and are working as professionals in their own private companies.

The secondary school graduates, who choose this specialty, are usually coming from rural regions and small towns. During the studies at the LUA they receive not only knowledge in the core profession – energetics, but also in different fields of agriculture and agriculture-related subjects – offered only in the LUA as elective subjects. Knowledge and skills got during studies allow them to design and improve electrical and heat energy supply and use equipment and systems in agricultural production, design and improve alternative energy sources in agriculture products processing, introduce and design co-generation and small hydro power stations for each particular situation and case.
These highly educated specialists with broad knowledge in agriculture and energetics, who return to their homeland, improve environment in countryside and small towns. As Latvia entered the EU, it is clear that lot of small farms will not be able to survive based only on income from agriculture business. The fact that such specialists are returning with knowledge and courage, can help to develop countryside environment, and to provide normal change of generations in very important positions of countryside operations.
Engineers of energetics working in agriculture products processing and rural electrical power and heat supply systems must obtain knowledge not only in power engineering, but also in technological processes involved in agriculture. They must have practical knowledge of equipment use, maintenance and repairing, and business management skills as well.
There is a lack of heating and heat generation equipment use and management specialists, especially in gas burning equipment use, maintenance and repairing. All this asked for the change of the existing academic study program to professional study program, including in it more wider part of on-job training and more extensive heat power engineering part.
The proposed professional bachelor study program is unique in its field because of the ability to prepare wide profile engineers of energetics with particular stress on agriculture and its technologies. The graduates will have knowledge in electric and heat power engineering, and also in agricultural technologies, processes and products. This will allow them to meet the high demand for such specialists in Latvia regions and small towns.
The study program was compared with the study programs of several European Universities (Estonian, Lithuanian, Norwegian Agriculture universities, Cranfield University Silsoe Colleague from UK, Athens University from Greece, Braunshweig University from Germany, Riga Technical University, etc.) The comparison of these study programs is presented in Table 3.
All programs traced have a comparable structure and composition of study subjects, study process organization in lecturing, practical and laboratory studies and independent studies, individual and group work, exams, tests, quizzes, projects, and thesis works, oral and written and accumulating tests and exams. All universities and study programs include also student and professor exchange, on-job training and study visits to enterprises. Programs allow particular specialization of evens student.
The main difference between the traced programs and the one proposed by IAE is the overall length of studies – in the EU universities the study length usually is not more than 3,5 years, and total amount of CP is 120..140. The study program proposed by IAE has 4 years of the study time, with the total amount of CP – 160.

Breakdown of core, humanities, special and elective subjects is very similar to what all other universities offer. The main difference and thus uniqueness of the IAE study program is in the fact that all other programs have very small connections with agriculture, and are particularly oriented either on electric energetics or heat power engineering. The IAE study program provides students with much wider knowledge base in all energetics fields, and thus let them be more competitive in the lobour market now and even more in the future.
1.4 Study evaluation system
The evaluation of the study results of each particular student is the main responsibility for the study subject professor. Evaluation scale of 10 points is being used, with 4 as the last passing grade. For study subjects where course projects are planned, there are two assessments to be made – one for the theoretical part (pass/no-pass), and another for the course project as a
11
whole (grade in 10 points system). If the study subject has two parts, each part must be graded separately.
Defense of the bachelor thesis is a public activity taking place in proposed time and place, but the grading is being made by the commission consisting of 9 members from the Faculty of Enginnering, production and business, currently managed by Dr.ing.D.Viesturs, Director of the Agricultural Engineering Institute. This commission is approved by the Rector of the LUA. Currently the grading of the bachelor thesis is being done by the same commission for all the Faculty of Engineering, but with launching of this new study program there will be another commission, which will include professionals from IAE, energetics fields of business and from agricultural enterprises.
The Bachelor thesis must be in a written form, consisting of 40..50 pages with drafts, text and figures. The main topic of the thesis work is observation and research of particular energetics equipment or system (technical end economical aspects, problems found, alternatives of solutions proposed, alternatives chosen, recommendations and implementation of the improvements proposed, and techno-economical evaluation of the implemented solution). Extensive search of literature resources is required as well. A Supervisor of the bachelor theses and referee are evaluating thesis work, and giving their evaluation of the work done.
During the thesis defense process after the presentation speech of the findings the student gives answers to the commission questions, showing his/her problem solving knowledge and skills acquired during the study process. Questions can be definite – from fields of energetics, and also practical or based on overall situation analysis. Each commission member writes down his/her questions and grades for each of them in a special table, which after the bachelor thesis defense is being collected by the secretary of the commission. The final grade of the particular thesis is being calculated as the arithmetic average of all grades put by all commission members, with one decimal number rounded. The final grade approval is being made by all commission through open voting. According to the rules stated by the Faculty of Engineering, if the first decimal number is equal or higher than “5”, the final grade is rounded to the next higher grade. The lowest acceptable grade is “4” – almost average.

1.6.3 Academic staff renewal, training and development policy
Average age of the academic staff in the IAE is 49 years. Roughly 30% are at the age of retirement (over 60 years old). Renewal of the academic staff is a problem for the whole of the LUA, and for the Faculty of Engineering and IAE as well.
The main problems not allowing to renew the staff are low salaries in comparison with wages in private and state enterprises, and destructive doctoral studies organizing policy (low
18
grants for doctorate students, too short and squeezed study time for thesis development and defense, overwhelming requirements for Latvian doctorate students in comparison with colleagues in other Baltic and European states.
Academic staff salary increase and re-design of doctorate study system will have positive results in staff problem solving in all universities.
During last years IAE have really good results in academic staff renewal. Two young staff members - assistents Ms.Liene Kanceviča and Mr.Indulis Straume, who are doing their master studies, joined the team. It is expected to see them as doctorate students and future staff members in IAE.
Academic staff development and renewal program has the following steps and phases: Creating circumstances and conditions for the best students to involve them in
scientific research in order to target them to doctoral studies and academic career;
Creating conditions to qualifications and skills training in the universities abroad (involvement in the international study and research programs and grants);
Academic career development after doctor degree receiving: Through election in IAE and offers to manage new subjects and study
programs; Promotion to position of associated professor after 3..4 years of work
with IAE.
1.7 Infrastructure and sources of finance
1.7.1 Financial sources for study process and research activities
IAE uses the following sources of funds and finances in order to provide study process and organize scientific research:
Latvia state budget funds and grants from Latvian Council of Science; Cooperation agreements with private production companies and enterprises; Students’ payments for studying at LUA; European structural funds
Full time professional bachelor studies are covered by Latvia state budget assignments. Part time and evening studies are covered only partly by state budget – part of students are paying by themselves. Total expenses for full-time and part-time studies are calculated according to norms and regulations issued by the Latvian Cabinet of Ministers (No.8 and No.334 (Appendix 11)). Forecasted number of students in full time study program in 2005 is 82, and in part-time study program – 152 students.
State funds for full time studies support are in total LVL 87,000, including LVL 34,800 – for salaries, and LVL 52,200 – other expenses related to the study program organization.
Scientific research is financed from grants and resources of the enterprises. Total sum for 2005 is LVL 4,500. IAE received financing also from SSC “Latvenergo”, Power Company “Jauda”, the Rural support department of the Ministry of Agriculture, and Latvia Council of Science (total sum LVL 2,430) for the conference “Advanced technologies for energy producing and effective utilization” taking place in Jelgava on June 28., 29. 2004.

1.7.2 Infrastructure of IAE and methodological support
Infrastructure of IAE includes 10 laboratories equipped for study process needs – for practical works , laboratory experiment and classes for professional studies. A part of them (5) are designed also to be used as lecture rooms, equipped with tools and instruments for presentation purposes (list of equipment presented in Appendix 12).
Staff of IAE started to work on computerized laboratory development. First steps – repairing of the premises, including ventilation, fire protection system and new furniture installation, was done during the first part of 2004. 24 internet access points were established there as well. The next part – purchase of necessary equipment, hardware and software, will take place after receiving the necessary funds (application for funds was sent to European Structural funds (ESF), total amount LVL 60,000 – Appendix 13).
IAE is planning to develop laboratory of Automatic control of technological processes on the basis of laboratory of Automation. This laboratory will be equipped with the latest devices for automated systems research and mechatronics (Appendix 14).
Development of both laboratories mentioned is included in the Strategic plan of IAE and LUA for 2006.
The current laboratory equipment and computers used in IAE are outdated, and the quantity is too far from necessary to provide students with knowledge and skills about the latest technologies and systems. Computers in IAE are very old, unable to use latest modeling and electronic systems development and design software. The computer laboratory of the Faculty of Engineering is being used to train students in the design programs use. It is expected that IAE will be able to cover needs for computed laboratory after finishing the above mentioned project with help of ESF.
Development and improvement of the infrastructure and equipment base is on going and planned process in IAE. Due to active contacts between the staff of IAE and private companies there are donations of equipment and instruments to IAE. The following companies made donations to IAE:

Approximately estimated costs for professional bachelors study programme “Agricultural Energetics”
(Education classification code 52205 in LR,
approved by Ministry of Education and Science, May 11, 2004, instruction Nr. 287)
1. Study programme normative financing for full time fundamental studies.
Normative financing estimates:
FS = Tb ×[(ki × ni)+ 1,5(ki × mi)]+Sb×(ni × mi)(Regulation Nr. 334, LR Cabinet of ministry, Rīga July 24, 2001, Regulation Nr. 8, LR
Cabinet of ministry, January 6, 2004),
where: FS – size of study financing, Ls;Tb – fundamental costs of study places, Ls;ki – cost coefficient for related study education thematic field;ni – number of study places for bachelor’s study programme for this
university; mi – number of study places for masters study programmes;Sb – costs of study places social security.
but, professional bachelor’s study financing for 2005 must be calculated:
F = Tb ×(k × n)+(S1+ S2)×n,
where: F - size of study financing; k2004 - cost coefficient for related study programme in engineering,
LUA, 2004 - 1,94; n - planned number of students for this study program - 82 * ;
144
Tb - fundamental costs for studies, for year 2004 in LUA, Ls - 474,25; S1 - stipend’s and transportation cost compensation, Ls - 132; S2 - costs of sport and cultural hotel and official hostels, Ls - 9,5;
* Number of students prognosticate for :1 year – 26; 2 year – 20; 3 year – 18; 4 year -18
(82 students in total).
Financial estimation.
Study programme financing, 2005:
F = 82 × [(474,25 × 1, 94 × 1,0) + 132 + 9,5)] = Ls 87046.69
Necessary normative financing:
F = 82 × [(474,25 × 2,9 × 1,0) + 132 + 9,5)] = Ls 124379.65
Sources of Financing:
State budget - Ls 98564,00 (82 × 1202,00), where yearly financing for one student in LUA is - 1202,00 Ls
Distribution of costs for study programme
Stay and study process costs (60%) - Ls 59138,40 Salaries for teaching staff (40%) - Ls 39425,60
Labour-intensity of study programme realization
Number of Teaching staff places:
- By centralized planning normative 10,25 (82 : 8) (March 12, 1997, Decision of Senate);
- After March 9, Regulation Nr. 42, Cabinet of Ministry;a) optimal - 15,9 (82:15×2,9).b) Year 2005 - 10,6 (82 : 15 × 1,94)
Total study amount if introducing study programme, in student credit points (SCP):
∑ SCP = 40 SCP per study year × 82 = 3280 SCP
2. Normative financing of this study programme for part-time fundamental studies.
Normative financing for part-time studies is calculated: 145
F = n × k1 × k2n × fb
but, study financing for year 2005
F = n ×k(2004) × k2n × fbn
where, k2n – 0,5 (cost coefficient for part-time studies),fbn – Ls 474,25 (full fundamental financing).
Planned number of students:
1 year – 60; 2 year – 35; 3 year – 27; 4 year – 18; 5 year – 16 . Total – 156 students.
Calculation of Financing.
Study programme financing for year 2005:
F = 156 × 1,94 × 0,5 × 474,25 = Ls 52902,59 .
Necessary normative financing:
F = 156 × 2,9 × 0,5 × 474,25 = Ls 79081,19 .
Sources of financing:
State budget - no financingPartly study payment - Ls 39000,00 (156 × 250,00)
(250,00 – payment declared for 2004/2005study year)
Distribution of costs for study programme
Stay and study process costs (60%) - Ls 23400,00 Salaries for teaching staff (40%) - Ls 15600,00
Labour-intensity of study programme realization
Number of Teaching staff places:
- By centralized planning normative 3,9 (156 : 40) (March 12, 1997, Decision of Senate);
- After March 9, Regulation Nr. 42, Cabinet of Ministry;a) optimal - 15,1 (156 : 15 × 2,9×0,5)
146
b) for Year 2000 - 10,1 (156 : 15 × 1,94×0,5)
Total study amount if introducing study programme, in student credit points (SCP):
∑ SKP = 40 SKP study year × 156 = 6240 SKP.
