Agricultural Science majors have five principal components in their coursework:
AGRICULTURAL SCIENCE COURSES AND THEIR SYLLABI
The table below lists all Agricultural Science courses. Clicking on the hyperlinks accesses a sample syllabus which includes information about the course and instructor. Course titles in BLUE are offered by multiple faculty and therefore have no syllabus presented. Course numbers highlighted in PINK are the core Agriculture courses, also listed above. Please note that syllabi shown here are for illustration only and are not meant to replace syllabi distributed to specific classes in specific semesters. Fa, Sp, and Su are abbreviations for Fall, Spring, and Summer, respectively, while odd and and even refer to years in which courses are offered (if not offered every year).
