About AECM
Here in the Agricultural Education, Communication & Marketing (AECM) program we strive to ensure our students are as prepared as they can be before entering the workforce. We live out this goal be defining three commitments to make our program the best it can be:

Each of these aspects is crucial to the future success of the student.
