Department of Agriculture and Technical Studies Faculty

An excellent faculty provides large-college learning experiences in a small-sized university environment. Each faculty member is able to provide personalized attention and instruction. Small classes allow a favorable teacher-student ratio, contribute to informal class sessions, and increase access to the department's laboratory facilities. Caring and dedicated instructors augment the typical classroom facilities, and their concern permeates their relationships with students.
