Agriculture and Natural Resources is an interdepartmental unit that offers a general
 agricultural science major with concentrations in agricultural education and agricultural Extension education. The major is designed for students who want a broad, general background in agriculture and natural resources and wish to pursue careers in non-formal agricultural education, agricultural communications or agriculture public relations. The agricultural education concentration leads to teacher licensure in agricultural sciences in the State of Tennessee. The agricultural Extension concentration is designed for those interested in agricultural Extension careers. This major is also designed for students who want an individualized plan of study. Plans need to be submitted before the junior year and approved by the advisor, department head, and the dean’s office.
Students who are undecided as to their studies in agriculture and natural resources are advised to follow the agricultural science program and explore the different majors available in the college. They should work with their assigned advisor to eventually choose one of the agricultural sciences minors. Students in the agricultural education and agricultural extension education concentrations or the communications minor should follow the appropriate concentration and work with faculty in agricultural and Extension education housed in Morgan Hall.
