Mission Statement - Bumpers College
The mission of the Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences is to prepare graduates who are intellectually enriched, technically competent, environmentally conscious, and ethically responsible. We honor the land-grant tradition and respect the many values of its fabric and heritage while having sensitivity toward change for the future. Our goal is for graduates to be responsible leaders, possessing strong communication skills, problem-solving abilities, and having commitment to be self-directed, lifelong learners.
To accomplish this, the broad curricula include basic courses in the general sciences and liberal arts, as well as agriculture and human environmental sciences.
