We Train Scientific Leaders

Faculty and advisors in our department actively prepare students for the next level of their careers, promote on-campus and national engagement within scientific communities, and support an active internship program with the regional agribusiness industry. We work closely with our partners and stakeholders to prepare the next generation of scientists.

Our graduates are CEOs, distinguished professors, and directors of research, among other rewarding positions.
