Crop science involves growing, protecting, developing and improving plants that supply the world's food, livestock feed, fuels, seed-based industrial raw materials, soil and watershed protection, lawns, turf and wildlife crops. Soil science is an applied science that builds upon a strong foundation in biology, chemistry, geology and physics. Students who like science and the challenge of solving problems can do it all in soil science. Soil Science Option Soil, one of our most important natural resources, plays a vital role in sustaining human welfare and assuring agricultural productivity and environmental stability. As a student earning a soil science degree, you will learn about the biological, chemical and physical properties of soil, and how best to use soils for a number of practical applications while protecting them for future users. In addition, global information tools and mapping systems are resources to assist you in characterizing landscapes and soils. Recent graduates of the Soil Science option have gone on to work with the Natural Resources Conservation Service, or have accepted positions with a number of environmental monitoring companies, or have attended graduate school at Oregon State University or other universities.
