Agricultural Systems Management (ASM) is a four-year major leading to the bachelor of science degree from the College of Agricultural Sciences. Studies in Agricultural Systems Management focus on the application of engineering principles, technical agriculture, and integration of business management concepts in the agricultural and related industries. Approximately equal weight is given to these three application areas in terms of course work.
Agricultural Sciences ASM students learn about soil as a growth and support media, agronomic or horticultural crop production, animal agriculture, and natural resources. Many agricultural science minors fit well with the ASM major. Business & Management ASM students learn how the business world works. Every ASM student takes courses in business law, accounting, finance, business logistics, and marketing. Flexibility in the major also makes it easy to get a business-related minor while pursuing the B.S. in ASM. With the curriculum focused on integration of business, engineering technology, and agricultural sciences, ASM graduates know how to apply energy, equipment, and structural concepts to optimize the production, processing, and delivery of food and fiber in a competitive world market. Most graduates are employed in an agribusiness or support industry and manage technical systems; they work with teams of engineers, scientists, and other business professionals. ASM graduates are problem solvers. For those who have interest in ASM but prefer another major, we offer a minor in Agricultural Systems Management. This minor emphasizes the application of engineering principles to agricultural problems. To request more information or to schedule a visit, click here |
