Program Description
Approximately 30–90 students a year enroll at Iowa State as undecided agriculture and life sciences students (Ag and Life Sciences Exploration, AgLS X). As they explore their options, they will enroll in an exploration class for undecided students, where they will further develop their goal-setting and decision-making skills. In the course, a diverse group of advisers will provide thm with in-depth information about a broad range of majors. Most graduates who majored in agricultural and life sciences work in industries related to the bioeconomy, agricultural and life science-related businesses, government, natural resources, and farming. Some pursue careers in research and continue graduate studies in one of Iowa State’s nationally ranked programs. Students can also use majors in agriculture and life sciences for preprofessional study, such as preveterinary medicine, premedicine, prenursing, and prelaw.
