Celebrating CTE Month | Week Four
Agriculture, Animal Technology, and Culinary Programs
From barn to field to restaurant floor, our various programs in agricultural science, animal technology and culinary arts provide LBCC students with hands-on experience to prepare them for their future careers. Students in our culinary program get an opportunity to hone their skills in real restaurant settings, while animal technology students get to practice looking after everything from horses to cattle - all in two years!
