Your future is bright.

Our students are prepared for their careers not only because of their education in the classroom, but also the internship and scholarship opportunities connected to our college. Agriculture and natural resource professionals are needed now more than ever. For example, look at the internship and career opportunities in the U.S. Department of Agriculture; USDA reports that more than 57,000 new jobs in agriculture-related fields created annually and more than 21 million people employed in agriculture-related fields.

Internship, scholarship, and undergraduate research opportunities boost your resume, provide you with valuable real-world educational experience, and help you to decide whether or not a career field is for you. In addition, earn money or college credit and enrich your college experience.
