Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Agribusiness Economics & Management: Agricultural Economics Emphasis] From University of Arizona

The Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics prepares students to assume responsible positions in the management of the world's natural and human resources. Private firms and government agencies seek employees with excellent problem-solving and communication skills. Students develop these skills through their studies in agribusiness management, finance, economic theory, natural resource economics, environmental regulation, quantitative techniques, and economic development, both domestic and international. This option is flexible so that students can add an optional minor in the area of their interest.

The knowledge of communications, economics, environmental policy, and natural resources gained from a degree in Agribusiness Economics and Management in the Agricultural Economics concentration provides a solid and specialized foundation for careers and future study. Graduates in Agricultural Economics might work in food production or natural resources management or for agricultural businesses, government agencies, and consulting firms. A major in Agricultural Economics is excellent preparation for future study in business administration, law, or public policy.
