Extractions: The College of Agriculture offers 14 bachelor of science degree programs, 10 master of science programs, nine programs leading to the Ph.D., and a pre-veterinary medicine program. The programs and options provide flexibility to meet the needs of students who will enter varied careers in the food chain and related agribusinesses. Professional agriculture is the application of the physical, biological, and social sciences and the principles of management to food production, preservation and processing, crop and livestock marketing, culture of flowers and ornamentals, life processes of plants and animals, natural resources management, economic development, and related fields. More than 95 percent of the instructional faculty of the College of Agriculture have Ph.D. degrees. All are actively involved in research and publish their findings regularly in scientific journals. They work closely with extension specialists. This integration of teaching, research, and extension helps ensure that courses are current and relevant.

Home The Agronomy major integrates principles of crop production, soil management and economics. Agronomy is the production of field crops and soil management. The Agronomy major combines courses from Plant Science, Soil Science, Agricultural Economics and other departments which provide students with a well rounded education and prepares them for a wide variety of careers. Philosophy of Instruction The Agronomy Program prepares students for a variety of careers in agribusiness, extension, and farming. Recently, there has been a large demand for qualified agronomist to work for agribusiness. As agronomy graduates possess a wide range of skills from different disciplines they are well suited to fill these positions. The Agronomy program allows some flexibility in course selection so as to allow students to prepare for careers in agribusiness, extension, research or farming. Through appropriate course selection, students can place emphasis on crop science, soil science or agricultural economics. If the students are interested in pursuing a career in agri-business, the agri-business minor would be a useful program of electives for the student to take, The Agri-business minor gives the student training in areas of management and economics which will be very useful if the student becomes involved with business, marketing or management.

University Archive Guide: Record Group 12 Department of Agronomy. (RG 13/5) agronomy courses have been givensince 1872. The Department of Agronomy was established in 1907 http://spec.lib.vt.edu/archives/guide/rg13.htm
Extractions: Agricultural training was one of the primary missions of the College from its beginnings. In the 1872 Catalog, Agriculture is listed as one of 13 courses of study. It consisted of lectures on: the selection, breeding, food, shelter, use, nature, and management of farm animals; dairy farming; soils; plants; landscape gardening; floriculture; farm economics; and building materials. Agriculture was one of the first four major administrative divisions created when Deans were appointed to the academic departments. In 1907-08, there was a School of Scientific Agriculture and a School of Agricultural Apprentices, but both were subordinate to the Department of Agriculture that had its own Dean. In 1920-21, the title was changed to School of Agriculture; then in 1964, it became the College of Agriculture. The name was changed to the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences in 1971. Return to Guide Mounted clippings concerning Agriculture from 1906-47 are located under classification "MA." From 1948-59, the mounted clippings are divided into the different Agriculture departments, with each department having a separate classification. The classifications are: Agronomy - MAAG; Animal Husbandry - MAAN; Animal Pathology - MAB.AP; Forestry - MAB.F; Biochemistry and Nutrition - MABio; Dairy - MAD; Agricultural Economics - MAHm; Horticulture - MAHr; Horticulture Garden Short Course - MAHrG; Institute of Rural Affairs - MAIn; Agriculture-Misc. - MAM; Poultry - MAP; Vocational Education - MAV; Plant Pathology and Plant Physiology - MAPP.
