Welcome to Department of Agriculture

 

General Information

From educational prospective, the department of agriculture strongly believes that graduated students will be becoming a firm backbone of our knowledge-based society. They are leading researchers who have high degree of expertise in the area of agriculture to foster innovative science and technology, and who have ability to research, solve problems with a flexible reasoning capacity and engage in strategic planning. Toward realization of our education policy to transform SPI to SPU, the department of agriculture has been considering transforming to faculty of agriculture which consists of 03 departments—Department of Agronomy consisting of 03 major skills such as Bachelor Degree of Agronomy, Associate Degree of Integrated Farming System and Associate Degree of Fruit and Vegetable Production, Department of Animal Science consisting of 02 major skills such as Bachelor of Animal Science and Associate Degree of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Food Science consisting of 02 major skills such as Bachelor Degree of Food Science and Associate Degree of Food Processing. This comprehensive educational system means the department resembles a reached-level entity and is ready while the Saint Paul Institute is transforming to Saint Paul University. To complete a milestone strategy, the department have also diversified screening methods to recruit students with various skill sets and to target the promising students upon they start compiling their research theses and graduated.

 

Mission

The mission of the department of agriculture is to realize THE MUST and HAVE-TO of mindset of students and mankind to sustainably use the biological resources, and to realize the evolution of agriculture to harmoniously apply for the global environment. We are glade to inspire our contribution to stabilize the supply of food and resources, conservation of living things for animals and plants, and health and welfare of human beings through education and research.

 

Objective
