About the course

The agricultural education major provides students with a broad understanding of agricultural, food, and natural resource sciences, and opportunity to develop professional educator skills. Professional courses in education and agricultural education prepare students to become effective and successful educators. Experiential learning is stressed as students spend time in schools applying course concepts, learning from effective educators, and completing a teaching internship as a capstone activity. While the major is focused on teaching school-based agricultural education, graduates are prepared for a variety of careers within the food and agricultural industry. Students are equipped with communication, critical thinking, and interpersonal skills, experience in the teaching and learning process, and a breadth of knowledge of the science and business of agriculture that are in demand by a wide range of employers. Graduates take positions as agricultural education teachers, educational and training specialists for agribusinesses, commodity organizations, governmental agencies, and nonprofits, as well as positions in sales, management, and customer relations with agribusinesses.
