The science curriculum at the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences covers a broad spectrum of topics related to food and agriculture, biology and biotechnology, natural resources and rural issues.

The College's undergraduate enrollment is largest of Wisconsin's agricultural colleges and, combined with graduate enrollment, is seventh largest of agricultural colleges. The academic achievements of CALS students are among the highest on the UW-Madison campus and exceed averages in similar UWSystem colleges. The college has awarded more Ph.D. degrees in agricultural and related sciences than any other U.S. agricultural college. CALS undergraduates enjoy the benefits of a small college (for example, individual faculty advisors, mostly small classes, and nearly all classes taught by professors) as well as the curriculum breadth and depth of a large, highly regarded research university on the cutting edge of new knowledge.
