Agri-Science Education

Students interested in agriculture and agricultural science education will enroll in a joint program leading to teacher certification in the School of Education and a degree from the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences. A Secondary Biology Education certification option may also be available for students interested in Agri-Science Education. Note that the Secondary Biology Education program is a limited enrollment, competitive admission program. Choose this link for more information.

Students should first apply to CALS and then apply at Education Academic Services, B117 Education Building, for joint enrollment with the School of Education during the semester when 54 credits will be completed. Find requirements for joint enrollment under the "Application and Admission" link below. Students jointly enrolled in a School of Education professional certification program and another school or college in the university must comply with the policies, rules, and regulations of the home school/college. The School of Education has responsibility for the professional education component of programs, including professional education course work, multicultural education and human relations, and field experiences. All other administrative matters are handled by the home school/college. Graduation requirements include the general degree and major area requirements as outlined by the home school or college and certification requirements of the appropriate program within the School of Education.
