This two-year program teaches the Principles of Agricultural Science-Animal in the first year. In the second year, students study Food Science and Safety, participate in unpaid work experiences while working on the capstone CASE Agricultural Research and Development course. Throughout both years students will study scientific communication, the science of agriculture, plants, animals, natural resources, and food science and safety. While surveying the hugely varied career opportunities available in agriculture, students will learn to solve problems, conduct research, analyze data, work in teams, and take responsibility for their work, actions, and learning. Direct connections to the National FFA organization activities and SAE (Supervised Agricultural Experiences) applications are woven throughout the program.
