Agribusiness
20:1
Student-to-faculty ratio
With a concentration in agribusiness at Concordia University, you will learn the necessary skills to become an essential part of the food supply industry. As an agricultural producer on a farm or ranch or in a business that provides services and supplies to those operations, you will apply business principles to real-world issues and opportunities within the agricultural and life sciences industries.
Our agribusiness concentration is offered through an agreement with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. You will take 5 courses in Lincoln, while taking general education and other business credits from Concordia. The 30-minute proximity of Concordia, a small, Christ-centered community, to its partner UNL, a larger, land-grant institution with a nationally recognized program in agribusiness, gives you the best of both worlds.
Agribusiness: Program Goals
