Agriculture
Agricultural transfer students get the best of both worlds — they complete their general education requirements and take 100- and 200-level classes focused on the agriculture industry. With evolving career opportunities, agriculture is a rich and innovative industry. Marketing, merchandising, sales, crop research, animal genetics, agribusiness, soil science, communications, engineering and production are just a few of the many roles in demand in agriculture.
