Are you interested in the ways that culture, economics and technology affect agriculture? Do you want to build your skills and knowledge to help produce and distribute food to the people of emerging economies? 学生 in the international agricultural development major learn about how to improve food production, 营养, marketing and health in less technically advanced countries. 学生 in this major are trained in technical and societal areas of agriculture that can be applied to the problems of world hunger and health.

Depending on your personal interests and goals, you may choose one of two core tracks in the program. The social sciences core gives you a background in the social and cultural roots of hunger and poverty and prepares you to work with agencies and missions seeking to help hungry people. The natural sciences core prepares you to help make technological improvements to food production and distribution systems in less developed countries. At the upper division level, you'll further refine your specialization by taking courses to support your goals in agricultural production, 经济发展, 环境问题, rural communities or trade and development in agricultural commodities.
