Agricultural
Development
(College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences)
International Agricultural Development is an interdisciplinary
major in the Human and Community Development
department.
Faculty. Includes members from various departments
across colleges.
The Major Program
The goal of international agricultural development is
to improve food production, nutrition, marketing,
and health in less technically advanced countries.
Students in this major are trained in technical areas
of agriculture that can be applied to the problems of
world hunger and health.
The Program. Principle subjects of study within the
major are Agricultural Production, Economic Development,
Environmental Issues, Nutrition, Rural Communities,
and Trade and Commodity Development.
Courses are in social sciences, humanities, and economic
environments in which agriculture operates in
countries outside the United States.
Career Alternatives. The study of international
agricultural development prepares a student for a
variety of careers. Some students choose service
through the Peace Corps. Others seek employment
in international trade, while others choose to work
for a governmental or private agency in a foreign
nation. Religious groups and organizations also
employ university-trained individuals for agricultural
work in conjunction with missions and other types of
human service work overseas. The major is also
preparation for further graduate work in agricultural
development.
