Agriculture and life sciences now touches everything from creating better nutrition, to finding alternative fuel, to preserving sensitive ecosystems
At CALS, we’re redefining agriculture and life sciences, expanding the possibilities and harnessing science to solve a broad range of the world’s toughest challenges. We are both a local resource and a global influencer in areas as diverse as agriculture, resource conservation, commerce and bio economy. As our industries face the unique challenges of the modern area, we are developing the technology and methods to create a sustainable and profitable tomorrow and inspiring students to be flexible problem-solvers.
Your ongoing partnership is crucial to help us sustain and grow our initiatives and continue to build on our progress. With your support, we will bring our research and technologies to the communities that need it most, creating a healthier and more sustainable tomorrow for everyone.
“Today, we simply cannot strive for anything less than ‘best in class’ with all we focus on at CALS. We can only achieve this with your help to provide the resources and experiences our students and faculty need.”
–Dean Shane Burgess
