Agricultural Business Management (BS): Biological Sciences Concentration

The Bachelor of Science degree in Agricultural Business Management prepares graduates for increasing opportunities to enter managerial positions in ag-related businesses. The academic program combines core courses in agricultural business and economics with courses in science and technology. Students learn to apply the concepts, principles and terminology of business and economics to real-world issues and opportunities.

The concentration in biological sciences combines training in science with business and economics and leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in Agricultural Business Management with a concentration in the Biological Sciences/Business Management (BBM). The concentration prepares graduates for management, marketing, and sales careers in fields such as biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, health care, environmental protection, and food processing.  Graduates specializing in agribusiness entrepreneurship are trained in value creation and prepared to address the strong demand in agtech, biotech, and foodtech.
