The Office of Undergraduate Admissions at the University of Maryland is offering multiple opportunities to visit and tour the University of Maryland this spring, including Maryland Information Sessions and Terrapin Tours. To complement these campus visits, the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources (AGNR) is holding an Information Session on select visit days! This particular Info Session will be tailored to admitted students and therefore prospective students will be asked to opt into another Info Session. Join us to learn more about our nine undergraduate (BS & BLA) degree programs, our hands-on approach to learning, beyond the classroom experiences, and life as a Terp.

This Info Session will include a brief presentation - providing an overview of the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources and some UMD basics - as well time to interact with and ask questions of current AGNR students! At the mid-point of this session, guests will break out to meet with students representing their academic department/major.

Global Community of Practice (CoP) is creating a space for faculty, staff, postdoctoral researchers, and graduate students to collaborate, learn, access resources, and further Agriculture and Natural Resources ( AGNR) goals towards increased international engagement.

The Taliban takeover of Afghanistan in 2021 had a severe impact on women and families, forcing many to leave their homes in search of safety. From 2011-2017, AGNR worked with women farmers and leaders in Afghanistan to help improve food security. You're invited to hear firsthand stories of Afghans who recently relocated to the U.S., what they experienced under Taliban rule, and how they are keeping hope alive today.
