Our students get practical, hands-on experiences in environments that help facilitate learning. Students focusing on wildlife will go out into wetlands and those with an interest in plants or animals will get experience with gardens, crops and livestock on research farms.
Many of the future’s biggest questions will be answered through agriculture. Because of this we provide students with state-of-the-art labs and equipment, so they have the resources to be prepared to tackle those tough issues.
The present campus location was built on a former sugarcane farm, so when we say LSU is rooted in agriculture, we mean it. Agriculture was a priority in 1922 and continues to be today as we stay true to our mission of creating a better life for the people of Louisiana and those across the world.
The LSU AgCenter plays an integral role in supporting agricultural industries, enhancing the environment, and improving quality of life through 4-H youth, family and consumer sciences, and community development programs.
The LSU College of Agriculture Alumni Association and Friends’ mission is to promote advancement of LSU and to provide support to all programs within the College of Agriculture and the LSU AgCenter.
Our alumni are found across the globe working in diverse fields. Their experiences and knowledge help shape our students’ future and advance agriculture. Many alumni give back to the college through membership in the alumni association, participation in the Agricultural Mentoring Program, the Agricultural Career Fair and financial support of scholarships, professorships and internships.
