Agriculture Science
The Central Texas College Department of Science and Agriculture offers Certificates of Completion in Agricultural Industry, Agricultural Production, as well as Horticultural and Equine Specialization. These awards are designed to provide an entry-level, industry-validated "hands-on" approach to learning.
The associate of science degree is a two-year program designed so the student can transfer course hours to a four-year university. The applied science degree and certificate programs are designed to provide specialized training with a "hands-on" approach to learning.
The Department of Science and Agriculture manages a 360-acre livestock center which includes newly-designed horse stalls, indoor and outdoor riding arenas, cattle production facilities, tillable cropland and pasture/rangeland for both the equine and bovine herds.
The Department of Science and Agriculture also includes a climate-controlled greenhouse for horticulture classes and labs.
