The undergraduate major in agricultural science includes all course work required for our recommending a student to SBEC for teacher certification. The requirements can be completed with any major in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Normally, completion of those requirements results in a student completing a second B.S. degree or a double major. Requirements can be completed by graduate students in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences as well.
