The University of Connecticut College of Agriculture and Natural Resources serves Connecticut through
a wide variety of research, outreach education, and undergraduate and graduate degree programs. As the original component of Connecticut's
land-grant university, the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources has as its primary mission education based on research, conducted
in laboratories and in the field, that focuses on agriculture, the environment, food, families, and quality of life. The College provides
high-quality, broad-based, relevant educational opportunities that prepare graduates to address the challenges of life today; it expands
the frontiers of knowledge through research; and it enhances economic opportunities and quality of life for people of Connecticut and beyond.
Research is administered through the Storrs Agricultural Experiment Station. Cooperative Extension faculty and staff, working with a network
of over 40,000 trained volunteers and eight extension councils, conduct outreach education and service programs throughout the state. The
College maintains livestock, greenhouses, forested lands, gardens, and other operations for teaching, research, outreach education, and
service programs.
