L’objectif principal de ce programme est de développer les compétences professionnelles nécessaires pour exploiter et gérer une entreprise agricole moderne. Cela est réalisé grâce au développement (ou l’acquisition) de compétences sur une période de trois ans au cours de laquelle les étudiants suivent une séquence de cours en sciences du sol, des plantes et des animaux, en ingénierie et en gestion. Nous visons également à développer les compétences entrepreneuriales des étudiants, leur croissance (ou épanouissement) personnelle et leur capacité à s’adapter à un monde en évolution.
L’été suivant la première année comprend un stage de 10 semaines dans une entreprise agricole autre que la ferme familiale ou dans une entreprise agricole, où les étudiants apprennent (ou acquièrent) de nombreuses compétences liées à l’agriculture commerciale moderne. Les étudiants se préparent à leur stage pendant les deux semestres académiques de la première année grâce à deux cours de stage et deux stages d’une semaine.
Pendant le deuxième été, les étudiants sont inscrits au cours de gestion d’entreprise 1 (Enterprise Management 1) . Pendant cette période, les étudiants seront responsables de la collecte de données qui seront utilisées dans les deux cours de gestion d’entreprise suivants et le cours de plan de gestion des nutriments lorsqu’ils retourneront au campus pour le semestre d’automne. Ces stages permettront aux étudiants de relier leur travail académique à la réalité de l’agriculture et du secteur agroalimentaire.
Les cours de formation générale en anglais, français, sciences humaines, éducation physique, une ou deux matières complémentaires (selon l’éligibilité de l’étudiant, veuillez voir ci-dessous), ainsi qu’un examen de sortie linguistique ministériel (épreuve uniforme de français) permettront à l’étudiant de recevoir un Diplôme d’études collégiales (DEC) du Ministère de l’Enseignement supérieur.
