The UGA CAES Prospective Student Scholarship application is open. This scholarship is open to incoming freshman and transfer students in 2023. If you know a prospective student, please encourage them to apply!
The Rural Scholars Program recognizes incoming, first-year University of Georgia students from Georgia's rural communities who have excelled academically, show strong leadership abilities, have a record of community service, and seek a degree in CAES. This application is also open! |
| JoHannah Biang (BSA - Horticulture, ’09; MS - Horticulture, ’12; PhD - Crop and Soil Science, ’24) manages UGArden, which teaches students how to grow food using sustainable practices.
“Growing your own food can be a very empowering experience," said Biang. "Not only do you learn what it takes to grow that food, harvest it and prepare it, but you also learn more about yourself and who you are."

Throughout the past week Ag Dawg Kickoff events have taken place on the Athens, Griffin and Tifton campuses. More than 700 CAES students, 75 faculty and staff, and 40 volunteers have been able to experience and make these events a success.
Sponsors as well as alumni and friend support has made it possible for this event to grow each year to welcome more students, faculty and staff back to campus. Thank you for supporting this experience!
More pictures from the event are coming soon to social media. The Red and Black came out to cover the event. |
