- Horticulture and Agronomy
- Pre-Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science
- Equine Science
- Agricultural Business
Gain Practical Experience
As an agricultural science major at Truman, you have more opportunity to get hands-on training than you typically find at larger institutions. If horses are your passion, learn about breeding, reproduction, horsemanship, and more. Or work directly with vegetable production and marketing through our Farm to School Program.?
