The Academic Accelerator Program is a two-semester program designed specifically for students who are ready to succeed in immersive English-speaking classrooms, but who also want the benefit of English-language and student support that will help them thrive. The program curriculum offers a balance of university-wide and Academic Accelerator program exclusive courses, with English-language course supplements that equip students with the practical, subject-specific vocabulary and skills that they need to excel in their coursework. Upon completion of the program, students progress into year two of their undergraduate education with a full year’s worth of academic credits. As a student in agronomy and soils, students will apply the basic sciences — such as biology, chemistry, physics, geology and microbiology — to better understand the natural foundation upon which our entire industry is built. Graduates of this program protect the natural environment while producing the food, fiber and resources that improve life for billions every single day. Soil, water and related resources are the foundation for land use planning and management in both rural and urban settings. The soil, water and land use option provides the academic background for pursuing a career in soil science. This option will prepare students for a career in the consulting industry, state and federal regulatory agencies or research.
