Within the agribusiness program at 体育菠菜大平台, the study of business and agriculture is brought together, helping students gain a deep understanding of every aspect of the agriculture industry.
Students complete courses in general economics, farm and ranch management, finance, marketing, price analysis, and policy. This wide-ranging curriculum provides students with a robust understanding of the outside forces that impact agricultural business. Graduates enter their careers ready to anticipate these industry shifts, understanding both the challenges and opportunities that may occur as a result.
The Agribusiness Club provides students opportunities beyond the classroom and expands professional and personal experiences within agriculture.
The club actively participates in community activities such as the Gateway Farm Expo. Students attend area conferences such as the Nebraska Cattlemen’s annual meeting. The club also brings in guest speakers during meetings to learn about industry trends and career opportunities.
