The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences is a pioneering
practitioner of purpose-driven science and Cornell University’s second largest
college. We work across disciplines to tackle the challenges of our time
through world-renowned research, education and outreach. The questions we probe
and the answers we seek focus on three overlapping concerns: natural and human
systems; food, energy and environmental resources; and social, physical and
economic well-being. Since our founding, we have been evolving to meet the
changing needs of our world. As our areas of study have diversified, we have
established top-ranked programs and over 20 majors in community and rural
development, environment and natural resources, food and nutrition, applied
economics, agriculture, international programs and life sciences. It is vital
to us that we match the excellence of our science with the generosity of our
spirit. We want to leave the world better than we found it, so we seek out
those not simply driven to master their discipline, but passionate about doing
so to serve the public good. CALS is fundamentally invested in improving the
lives of people, their environments and their communities both in New York
state and around the world.
The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Cornell University embraces diversity and seeks candidates who will contribute to a climate that supports students, faculty, and staff of all identities and backgrounds. We strongly encourage individuals from underrepresented and/or marginalized identities to apply.
