Please click on each institute below to register and to learn more about each institute. Please note there is a different application process for the field test institute.
The Principles of Agricultural Science –
Plant™ course is intended to serve as a foundation course within the
CASE™ sequence. The course is structured to enable all students to have a
variety of experiences that will provide an overview of the field of
agricultural science with a foundation in plant science so that students
may continue through a sequence of courses through high school.
Students will work in teams, exploring hands-on projects and activities,
to learn the characteristics of plant science and work on major
projects and problems similar to those that plant science specialists,
such as horticulturalists, agronomists, greenhouse and nursery mangers
and producers, and plant research specialists face in their respective
careers. This knowledge and skills will be used in future courses within
the CASE™ program. For more information about this course, checking out the CASE4Learning Website.
