In our program, students experience hands-on learning at our 1,000 acre production farm, in our green houses, teaching & research labs, mechanic shop, and garden & turf plots. Class sizes are small and engagment is high! Faculty members routinely offer student opportunities for attendance to scientific/industry conferences, competitions, symposiums and more! As a result, our students can develop a professional network to assist them upon graduation.
