AGRICULTURE, TECHNOLOGY, FOOD & NATURAL RESOURCES TRANSFER AS DEGREE
Contact Person: Carmel Miller • BPS Career Academy 109

The Agriculture, Technology, Food and Natural Resources transfer program offers core classes for students who will ultimately transfer to a four-year agriculture college. Faculty members advise students to meet the Associate in Science requirements at Bismarck State College (BSC) and the proper prerequisites for the transfer degree at a four-year college. Students are able to be dual enrolled at BSC and North Dakota State University (NDSU) or Dickinson State University (DSU).
Completion of the program provides a strong foundation in agriculture, allowing a student to enroll in a transfer school at the junior level to pursue a bachelor's degree in such areas as agribusiness, agricultural economics, animal science, crop and weed science, agriculture systems management, agriculture education, range management, natural resources management, general agriculture, veterinary technology, pre-veterinary medicine, and more.
A cooperative education internship with on-the-job training in an agriculture area of interest is suggested. Graduates of this program receive an Associate in Science degree.
