Agricultural Systems Technology and Agribusiness (Composite) - BS

This degree is a combination of courses required for the agricultural systems technology degree and the agribusiness degree. USU is the only university in the state with this program. Students gain an understanding of agricultural, biological, and physical sciences, as well as technical and business managerial skills.

The composite program prepares graduates for managerial careers within the agriculture industry, including running a family farm or ranch. Graduates may also pursue other agricultural careers, such as working for an agricultural equipment corporation, managing a machinery dealership, serving as a sales representative for an equipment company, or serving as a farm or ranch manager. 

A dual degree option (meaning students graduate with two separate degrees) is also available through the Applied Economics Department. The difference is that students in the composite program are not required to take as many higher-level math classes and theoretical economics classes.
