    agricultural sciences
  • To increase the quality of postsecondary
    instruction within these disciplines.

    historically underrepresented in the food and
    agricultural sciences workforce.
  • To inform students about career opportunities in
    public health-related professions while they

    allow students to obtain early field experience
    in four public health emphasis areas relevant to
    food and agriculture.
