Agribusiness lets you combine a business degree with agricultural science knowledge because when the books balance in the world of agribusiness, they don’t move from red to black on their own. Whether it’s finance, sales or international trade that interest you, at UGA you’ll gain the skills necessary to make rock-solid business decisions and explore the business side of food and fiber (those non-edible things we use that come from agriculture). And if you’re interested in going to law school, agribusiness is a great way to fulfill your pre-law options.
