Meet the challenges agriculture faces

Massey University?s world-class Bachelor of AgriScience programme focuses on the overlapping areas of agriculture, management and technology, enabling you to come up with innovative solutions to the challenges our primary industries face today.

The Bachelor of AgriScience degree gives you an understanding of agricultural systems within the wider context of the economy and society. Your study will focus on the key areas of agriculture systems - for example soils, plant and animals, economics and agricultural systems and management. Your study will also give you an insight into the environmental impact and sustainability of these systems.

You will also learn key skills in communication, information technology, creativity, innovation, problem solving, teamwork and analysis. These are essential for your future career and will make you a sought-after employee.

Many of the students have jobs even before they graduate and are going on to great careers.

Massey is world-ranked and New Zealand?s No 1 university in agriculture according to the QS (Quacquarelli Symonds) rankings. The proud record dates back to 1927 when we offered New Zealand?s first degrees in agriculture and horticulture. As a student, you will benefit from our internationally-recognised capability and leadership in this area.
