Do you realize how much we depend on seeds?

Without seeds, our food supply, clothing, buildings, beautiful scenery, soil stability, wildlife habitat, energy and other products vital to life would no longer be available.

Because of their importance, a large seed industry has emerged. Would you like to be part of this dynamic industry? Then enrolling in the National Seed Science and Technology Distance Education Program may be for you.

Seeds need to be produced, conditioned, evaluated for quality, genetically identified, sold and distributed. Because of their importance, we need people!

The objective to delivering web-based seed science and technology courses is to:

  • Provide educational access to both on-campus and off-campus students.

  • Increase the efficiency and effectiveness in delivering seed science and technology courses to this broad, highly diverse student.

  • Assist in educating students for careers in the seed industry and provide courses for seed science professionals to continue their education and to meet their professional education requirements.
