Agricultural Economics (B.S.) - Specialty Option in Pre-Vet


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Agricultural Economics

The agricultural economics program balances the theoretical and practical applications of agricultural economics to give students the best grasp on emerging issues facing professionals in food and agriculture today. Students earn a BS in agriculture with a major in agricultural economics.

The requirements for the first two years are virtually the same for all options in agricultural economics. Exceptions to those requirements are noted in the discussion of the farm management, specialty option in pre-law, specialty option in pre-vet, and specialty option in natural resources and environmental sciences, and quantitative option.

Designed to give an understanding of the roles a veterinarian plays—such as doctor, manager, and consultant—this specialty also prepares students with all the biological science requirements needed to apply to veterinary school.

Requirements for the first two years are much the same. Students take CHM 210-Chemistry I in place of CHM 110 General chemistry and CHM 111 General Chemistry Laboratory.

Communication (14 credit hours)

Unrestricted electives as needed to meet 127 credit hours


Total credit hours required for graduation (127)
