| Call Number: |
UA 023.006 |
| Abstract: |
As a land-grant institution, North Carolina State University has had agricultural study as an integral part of instruction
since its beginning in 1887. In 1917, the first dean of agriculture took office, and the School of Agriculture was established
in 1923. The name was changed to School of Agriculture and Life Sciences in 1964, and finally to College of Agriculture and
Life Sciences in 1987. As of 2009, the College consists of 22 academic and extension departments, and runs the North Carolina
Agricultural Research Service, the current name of the former Agricultural Experiment Station. The College continues to strive
to meet its three primary functions -- teaching, research, and extension -- as first laid out over a century ago.
