农业科学技术学士-农学

农学专业的学生将接受广泛的农业学科的教育，这将为他们提供作物，土壤和动物科学方面的全面教育。在马里兰大学，该计划的重点是让学生获得可持续的农学视角。学生将采用整体方法来设计课程。该方法将通过开设动物科学，作物科学，土壤科学，农业经济学和害虫管理课程来整合农学。该学习计划的选修课允许学生设计课程表，并在满足其未来目标的领域中发展知识深度。例如，有些学生可能选择更多地关注农作物或动物科学，而另一些学生可能会选择更多的环境科学或国际农业课程。通过采取这种全面的教育方法，毕业生将准备好在农业扩展，管理，市场营销，
Agricultural Science and Technology is a science based curriculum that allows students to obtain technological skills in a broad area of agricultural studies. Agricultural Science and Technology students are required to take courses in agronomy, plant science, agricultural economics, animal sciences, environmental science, and pest management. The high number of restricted and non-restricted electives in this curriculum allows students the flexibility to develop an academic program compatible with their personal interests and goals. Here at the University of Maryland, the focus of the program will be for students to gain a sustainable perspective of agronomy. Students will take a holistic approach to the design of their course work. This approach will integrate the science of agronomy by taking courses in Animal Science, Crop Science, Soil Science, Agricultural Economics and Pest Management. This program of study has electives that allow the student to design their curriculum and to develop depth of knowledge in areas that meet their future goals. For example, some students may choose to focus more on agronomic crops or animal sciences, while others may take more courses in environmental sciences or international agriculture. By taking such a comprehensive approach to their education graduates will be prepared to work in the agricultural industry in such areas as agricultural extension, management, marketing, regulatory, support services, teaching, etc. In addition, students completing their Agriculture Science and Technology degree with a specialization in agronomy focusing on the basic sciences will be prepared to enter in to graduate school.
