Agricultural and Environmental Science and Technology (AEST) is a program which introduces students to new technologies and instructional areas leading to careers in related industries. The AEST curriculum is designed to start students with a broad base knowledge. As they progress academically, the students are offered more specialized courses to meet their interests and the occupations offered in the local area. Workplace skills are provided along with an exposure to technology, production, environmental stewardship, agricultural literacy, and leadership.
The program consists of a series of four courses which are designed to introduce students to agricultural and environmental science and to develop the technology of agribusiness practices. Each of the courses listed are scheduled for one semester and awarded one Carnegie unit for successful completion:
