The Faculty of AgriSciences at Stellenbosch University (SU) is held in high esteem at national and international levels for the quality of its training and research and also as consultant in the agricultural and forestry industry. Students enrolled in the faculty’s undergraduate- and postgraduate programmes are expertly trained to become leaders and managers in the various sectors of the industry.
When SU was officially established in 1918, Agriculture was one of the first four faculties and right from the outset it made an indelible contribution to agricultural education and research in South Africa. In 2006 the Faculties of Agriculture and Forestry merged to become the Faculty of AgriSciences as it is today.
Advancing your career within the Faculty of AgriSciences opens doors to innovative research and sustainable solutions, shaping the future of food security, environmental stewardship, and agricultural development science.
