What is it?
The Agronomy-Soil and Water Conservation Club promotes professional development in agronomy and the conservation of soil and water resources. Through this organization we are able to network with professionals in the field of agriculture, attend agronomy related conferences, job and internship opportunities, gain knowledge about current issues, as well as attend fun social events throughout the semester. We are affiliated with two national organizations, SASES and SWCS. We are also affiliated with the Collegiate Crops Judging Team and Collegiate Soils Judging Team, which you can choose to compete in.
Who can join?
This club is open to anyone wanting to learn about agronomy, in an agriculture/conservation field of study, or many just wants to hang out with some environmental and agricultural students. Anyone can join!
