Program Description
Agriculture and food processing depend on our environment. Climate change will likely have a significant impact on agriculture. That’s why sustainable agriculture is becoming a rapidly expanding field as it joins ecological principals with agriculture practices.
This minor attracts students from several different majors such as art, biology, and business and who have a passion about our food supply and our environment. Organic farming and ecological farming are some of the terms used in describing agroecology.
In studying this minor, you’ll work with the community to enhance local agriculture and your quality of life. You’re research project will provide hands-on learning opportunities.
