B.Sc. Agricultural Science Education

B.Sc. Agricultural Science Education is a degree programme that combines agriculture and teaching. It prepares you to teach agricultural science in schools and colleges, while also giving you practical knowledge of farming and agribusiness. Offered at Asante Mampong on a full-time basis, it is open to SHS graduates with backgrounds in Agriculture, General Science, or Technical Studies.

What this degree is about

Programmes of this kind usually cover crop and animal production, soil science, agricultural economics, and the methods for teaching these subjects to young people. You will learn how to plan lessons, manage a classroom, and help students understand where their food comes from and how it is grown. The degree blends practical farm skills with the theory of education, so it suits people who love agriculture and enjoy working with students.

How hard it is to get a place

This programme is less competitive to get into than many other degree programmes at the university. If you have studied Agriculture, General Science, or Technical Studies at SHS and you meet the general admission requirements, you have a good chance of being offered a place. The programme is delivered full-time at the Asante Mampong campus, which means you will be on campus for classes and practical sessions.

Where graduates usually end up

Most graduates of agricultural science education programmes go into teaching, either at senior high schools, technical institutes, or colleges of education. Some move into agricultural extension work, helping farmers adopt better methods, while others find roles in agribusiness, agricultural research support, or educational administration. The combination of science and teaching skills also opens opportunities in curriculum development and educational resource design.
