In the agricultural industry, a growing need exists for professionals with extensive knowledge and experience in the agricultural sciences. Students pursuing a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Agricultural Science study the dynamic aspects of the food and fiber industry and specialize in two agricultural areas.
Students who major in Agricultural Science will:
-
have opportunities to develop skills necessary to work independently and as part of a team, communicate effectively, solve problems, and understand basic business concepts
-
select two of the following specialty areas to study: Animal Science, Agricultural Business Management, Agricultural Environmental Technology, Agroecology, Crop Science, Food Science, Horticultural Science, Poultry Science, Soil Science, and Feed Mill Management.
-
graduate and succeed as teachers, extension agents, or leaders in the agricultural industry
The Agricultural Science – Online major is the same robust major and preparation for a career in agriculture as our Agricultural Science on-campus major. The difference is the delivery mode for coursework. All courses in the Agricultural Science – Online degree program are delivered at a distance via the NC State Moodle learning management system. Students complete their coursework synchronously (scheduled class meeting times) or asynchronously (independently scheduled time) online.
Please visit the program website for additional information.
Remaining Courses to beTaken at NC State are based on CAA eligibility and completion of all required and suggested courses in this transfer guide. Remaining courses, hours and time to degree may vary for each student.
