Agribusiness
The degree in Agribusiness combines selected Core Business
Knowledge classes from a degree in business with coursework
emphasizing the understanding of the unique institutional and
managerial challenges facing agribusiness firms.
By integrating business management principles with applied
technical knowledge, students develop practical decision-making
skills to address challenges facing agribusiness firms in the
production, processing and distribution of food and fiber in Texas,
the nation, and the world.
