The College of Agriculture, Life Sciences and Natural Resources offers a wide variety of course work in agriculture, natural resources, molecular biology, and family and consumer sciences. The curriculum provides a sound background in basic sciences and the choice of a number of fields in which to specialize. Students are trained in principles which apply throughout the world, with special emphasis on agriculture and natural resources found in the Rocky Mountain region.

Laboratory work and other experiential learning opportunities are stressed in all programs. Students receive excellent training from case studies and practical experience provided at research and extension centers. Other facilities include modern laboratories and classrooms, an abattoir, meat processing rooms, livestock and crop farms and greenhouses.

In addition to the academic departments, the college includes the Agricultural Experiment Station and the UW Extension. Materials and techniques resulting from this effective triple combination benefit students in the never-ending search for problem-solving information. The close relationship between teachers, researchers, and extension educators creates a learning atmosphere that encourages the development of the finest students.
