"The Agriculture program here at NWOSU has furthered my understanding of the importance of agriculture in today’s time. This is achieved by applying hands-on training techniques in and out of the classroom. The entire department including my professors, academic advisor, and support staff are passionate about educating the future generation. The entire staff has made the transition from my previous college out-of-state a graceful one, while always being understanding with regard to my vigorous baseball schedule. They never hesitate to help students in need, as they aspire for all of us to succeed. The atmosphere they have created in the classroom and on campus is unmatched, and I am very privileged to be a part of it."

"Northwestern’s Agriculture Department has knowledgeable professors eager to help you learn. They provide hands-on experience and real-world applications that make the information relevant. Agriculture is a part of everyone’s daily life, and with a degree from NWOSU, I will have the skills and knowledge to share this message."

"The Agriculture professors at Northwestern love what they do, and it shows in the way they invest their time in their students. Because of small class sizes, I have been able to meet with professors to learn more about areas of agriculture that I am interested in and to receive help when I am struggling to understand intricate topics. The NWOSU Agriculture Department has provided me with the opportunity not only to learn more about the science of agriculture but also to make connections with people that will be invaluable as I move forward in my career."
