Governor’s School For
Ag Sciences In Session
UNIVERSITY PARK (Centre Co.)
College graduates with expertise in agricul
tural sciences will enjoy a strong employ
ment market through the 19905, according to
a recent USDA report Positions in market
ing, merchandising, and technical areas will
be difficult to fill, and scientists, engineers
and related specialists will be in great de
mand.
“There are tremendous opportunities in the
agricultural sciences for young people to
day,” said Dr. Marianne Houser, instructor in
Penn State’s College of Agricultural Sci
ences.
Penn State is trying to catch the best and
brightest at an early age to teach them about
these career opportunities. This summer, 64
of the state’s leading high school students are
spending their vacations studying agricultur
al economics and business, plant and animal
science, land use, remote sensing, and com
puters at the Pennsylvania Governor’s
School for the Agricultural Sciences, July 4
to August 7.
The students, who come from both urban
and rural areas, were selected from hundreds
of applicants for their strong academic cre
dentials and interest in science and technolo
gy. Each student has been awarded a full
scholarship, which covers tuition, classroom
materials, student activities, and room and
board in the university’s residence halls.
“Governor’s School is a once in a lifetime
experience,” said Houser. “Students are ex
posed to a wide variety of fields agricul
tural economics and business, animal sci
ence, engineering systems, plant science, in
ternational agriculture, and managing natural
resources and the environment. They leam
about methods and techniques of agricultural
research, leadership development and career
planning.”
Participants also may elect to study ento
mology, agricultural engineering, food sci
ence, remote sensing, and geographic infor
mation systems. They work individually with
faculty members on independent study pro
jects.
Penn State’s extensive teaching and re
search facilities provide the students with ac
cess to classrooms, computers, libraries, and
laboratories. Governor’s School assistants
supervise the students and take part in class
es, special events, and field trips.
Governor’s School scholars also have the
opportunity to meet and interview profes
sionals about career opportunities in indus
tries such as food processing and agricultural
communications.
Field trips and activities are planned, in
cluding visits to Longwood Botanical Gar
dens, Hershey Foods, the New Bolton Center
at the University of Pennsylvania, the Atlan
tic Breeders Cooperative, and Shaver’s
Creek Environmental Center.
The Governor’s School for the Agricultur
al Sciences is sponsored by the Pennsylvania
Department of Education, the state’s inter
mediate units, and Penn Slate’s College of
Agricultural Sciences. Pennsylvania’s
Governor’s Schools also are offered in the
arts, sciences, education, health care, and in
ternational studies. Questions about the
