With graduation just around the corner, the University of Wisconsin-Platteville School of Agriculture is buzzing with anticipation and celebration as students prepare to embark on their next adventures in the agricultural industry.

Amidst the final exams and job interviews, the job market for these grads is looking good. According to Platteville’s School of Agriculture Director, Tera Montgomery, there has been a noticeable trend of interest from both employers and students in the field of Agronomy, as well as in areas related to sustainability practices, particularly in business applications such as carbon credits. The school has also witnessed a rise in students exploring interdisciplinary opportunities by combining agricultural studies with fields like communication, marketing, business, and engineering

"The intersection of agriculture with other disciplines is becoming increasingly appealing to our students. We're seeing more engagement from students who want to broaden their skill sets and explore diverse career paths within the agricultural industry."
