Fall 2017, Vol. 14, Issue 2
Modern agriculture is a beacon of scientific achievement. Through the Minorities in Agriculture, Natural Resources and Related Sciences (MANRRS) organization and scholarships like the Broder-Ackermann Global Citizen Award, students gain the experience necessary to innovate in agriculture and in the larger international community. Academic opportunities like the Double Dawgs Program and the college’s partnership with the University of Padova in Italy equip students for roles in the global workforce. The college provides a range of academic and support programs to empower students to become the torchbearers of tomorrow’s agricultural industry.
