A Place Where Leaders Grow
As one of the oldest and most prestigious land-grant colleges, the College of Agricultural and Life sciences continues to engage its students in the search for practical solutions to real-world problems.
On any day in CALS, you might find students in white lab coats, searching for cures to devastating diseases. You might find them striding through a tallgrass prairie in search of nesting birds. You might find them in a farmer’s field, collecting samples to help nurture better food crops. Or you might find them in an elementary school kitchen, working to make school lunches more satisfying and nutritious.
But one thing is certain: wherever you find CALS students, you’ll find them engaged. That’s because CALS is not just one of the oldest and most prestigious land-grant colleges in the nation, it’s also one of the most innovative—a place where hands-on teaching is a hallmark of the student experience.
