An interdisciplinary program from the Colleges of Agriculture and Education, Health and Human Development.

Students in all four SFBS options(Food Systems,Crop Production,
Agroecology, and Livestock Production) take a core curriculum
of six courses designed to provide broad exposure to key principles
of sustainable food and bioenergy systems.
In addition, coursework
in each option is specifically designed to create more detailed and
subject-specific knowledge in your area of specialization. Students take
complementary coursework in political science, economics, business,
Native American studies, and engineering. Two internships allow
you to gain exposure to 1) hands-on learning in market garden
agronomy and food distribution, and 2) an in-depth internship with
an experienced mentor in your chosen career field.
