With a variety of degree programs in the arts, humanities, sciences, engineering, and professional disciplines, the university is well known for its learn

• by-doing approach and Teacher Scholar Model.

The university is noted for its scenic and historic 1,400-acre campus, which was once the winter ranch of cereal magnate W.K. Kellogg. We acknowledge that Cal Poly Pomona resides on the territorial and homelands of the Tongva and Tataavium people who are the traditional land caretakers of Tovaangar. The university's nearly 30,000 students are taught and mentored by the campus's more than 1,400 faculty as part of 54 baccalaureate and 29 master's degree programs, 11 credential and certificate programs, and a doctorate in educational leadership. Highly regarded among its peer institutions, Cal Poly Pomona is No. 2 in the U.S. News and World Report rankings of top public regional universities in the west and was named the No. 28 best value college in the nation by Money Magazine. Cal Poly Pomona, a Hispanic-Serving Institution and an Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institution, stands as a national leader in promoting social mobility, and was placed among the 25 top institutions in the country in awarding bachelor's degrees to minoritized students by Diverse Issues in Higher Education. In 2022, the campus launched the Black Thriving Initiative recognizing that Cal Poly Pomona's future as a university is linked to the success of its Black community. More information about our Principles of Community can be found here. About the Huntley College of Agriculture The Huntley College of Agriculture educates and trains the next generation of leaders in the farming, food, and fashion industries. We offer our students hands-on learning experiences, ranging from working with crops and animals on our 173-acre farm, to experimenting with food products, or designing and marketing a fashion line. We also have partnerships with industry leaders. These partnerships not only give us the diverse knowledge to create meaningful curriculum, but they also provide internships that give our students firsthand experience working in their desired area. Our students have excellent career prospects. California has the largest agricultural industry in the country, while Los Angeles is a major distribution hub for the food and apparel industries. In addition, Southern California has a major cluster for food processing, offering opportunities for those interested in these careers. Our faculty and staff are caring and outstanding people. We invite you to join us on our journey of student success and help us "Grow the Future." About the Department of Agribusiness & Food Industry Management/Agricultural Science Our department teaches the full range of business-related courses e.g., accounting, economics, finance, management, and marketing, but with a food

• or agricultural emphasis.

We also teach specialized classes in agricultural policy, history of agriculture, international development, and agricultural ethics. We offer very popular general education courses that are taken by students from throughout the university. We believe in engaging with the broader community (including public and private firms, trade associations, charitable organizations, government agencies, and school districts, as appropriate) for the benefit of our students as well as the broader community. We have community service-learning courses, and we integrate micro-internships into certain courses. With the specific knowledge they have gained, our graduates are employed in the input sector (e.g., agricultural lending), agricultural production, and the food sector. We believe in continuous improvement, so we constantly seek to augment our knowledge, skills, methods, technology, and curriculum. Our dedicated faculty focus on the success of our students as well as advancing the body of knowledge in agribusiness and the food industry through applied research. We also value our planet and its environment. To support the future of our planet, its plants and animals, and humankind, we pursue environmental sustainability in everything we do.
