Growing markets.
In this exciting time of growth in global opportunity, small and large agricultural businesses in the U.S. have one thing in common: They are all competing for growing local, regional and international markets.
In our agricultural business development Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) program, you will combine a knowledge of production agriculture with business and management skills, and be prepared to lead consumer-based businesses related to agriculture and food production.
In our full-semester internship, you will put all your skills and course learning together through supervised fieldwork in a selected agriculture business or agriculture service organization.
As a graduate of our program, your unique combination of skills and experience in production, marketing and management will set you on a track to owning or managing a wide range of agricultural businesses.
