Minor in International Agriculture, Food & Natural Resources
The world is becoming increasingly complex and integrated in nearly every category of human endeavor. An understanding of how global markets, natural resources, food production, and international trade and cooperation are affected by societies, languages, cultures, and governments is an essential component of a well-rounded 21st century education in AFNR. To facilitate these studies, the multidisciplinary International AFNR Minor offers academic recognition for achieving a level of expertise in coursework of international focus.
