The new Agricultural Technology (AgTech) program will be an innovative new pathway that integrates digital technologies and world-class agricultural research into a new point of entry for those interested in STEM careers in agriculture-infusing practical training with UC Davis' signature excellence in providing students with a solid research foundation. Comprising an interdisciplinary undergraduate major, a graduate group, and an extension certificate for mid-career professionals, the AgTech program will give students opportunities to work and research alongside faculty and industry partners. To ensure the pipeline of talent reflects California's rich diversity, we will develop vibrant outreach programming to inspire students, with special emphasis on 4-H and FFA members. AgTech will play a key role in preparing the next generation to reimagine agriculture's future.
