About the Program
At the University of Maryland Eastern Shore, we prepare students to make significant, positive contributions to the food and agricultural sciences through learning, discovery and engagement. You’ll be primed for a career in agriculture through experiential learning opportunities. Get your hands dirty in our state-of-the-art research, education and farm facilities as you gain real-world skills and knowledge.
We provide students with a nurturing environment that offers opportunities for discovery through experiential learning. Upon graduation, our students are prepared for a career in agriculture and possess:
- Information management acumen.
- Critical and analytical thinking skills necessary to integrate theory and real-world situations to make management decisions.
- The capacity to communicate effectively.
- The ability to compete in a highly technological, computer information-oriented and global society.
Our agriculture program includes both undergraduate and graduate tracks, so you can earn a bachelor’s, master’s or doctorate at UMES. All students, regardless of rank, can conduct their own research projects and/or assist faculty with their research. Our research opportunities are diverse, complex and important, with topics ranging from animal and poultry science to food quality enhancement.
