Technical ag college to offer new degree
The Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture in Curtis will offer a new associate of science degree to all students starting in fall 2005.
This degree is an addition to the associate of applied science degrees offered in four majors - agriculture production, agribusiness, veterinary technology and horticulture. The new degree will allow students to be better prepared for baccalaureate work and an easy transfer to a four-year institution.
"This degree is long overdue and provides our students with the same opportunities all of the two-year colleges in the state currently offer in terms of a transfer program," said Jerry Sundquist, interim dean at Curtis. "NCTA's Associate of Science Degree will offer students the uniqueness of a transfer degree rich in agriculture, business, horticulture and veterinary technology curriculum."
Jill Koslosky, admissions coordinator for the college, said 16 students will be enrolled in the new degree program this fall and projects at least 35 enrollees by 2009.
