Mission
The Office of International Programs for Agriculture was
established in 1975 to coordinate and facilitate international
activities in the College. Its functions are to assist students
and faculty in obtaining opportunities for international study,
research or other professional work; to liaise with funding agencies
and on-campus units with international interests; to assist
international students and visiting scholars in the College and to
inform faculty and administrators of developments in international
agriculture which may be of importance to the college. The office
manages international developmental contracts and grants related to
agricultural education, research, development or extension. Such
activities may include providing technical assistance, management of
academic training programs, organization of short courses or on the job
training, and assistance in acquiring U.S. commodities. The
office facilitates student and faculty exchanges or research
collaboration under memoranda of understanding with foreign
agricultural institutions.
