Program Overview

There is increasing demand for leaders in the agriculture and food sectors with diverse skills and knowledge of both the management and technical aspects of the industry. This unique program provides an opportunity to combine management studies with agriculture.

The combined degree brings together two key agriculture majors (Animal Science and Crop & Pasture Science) with fundamental business knowledge and a choice of a business major (Management, Marketing or International Business). The broad range of skills and experiences covered, together with industry and community engagement, prepare graduates for careers in the rapidly developing world of agribusiness.

 

Major: Crop and Pasture Science

With training from scientists, professionals and industry-leading farmers learn how science is applied to food production in cropping and pasture systems regionally, national and globally. You’ll gain extensive knowledge into the factors that affect the growth of plants used for food and forage production, and how plant growth can be manipulated through various interventions. Learn how the role of new technologies in improving the yield, profitability and sustainability of food production systems are driving growth in the agricultural industry.

In the process you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding about how agricultural businesses operate under the influence of government policies, markets and the value chain.
