| Curricular Programs |
Perhaps one of the most significant and tangible contributions of the university to the development of the country in general, and to higher education in particular, was lying the foundation for vocational-agricultural education in the country. As the foremost exponent of agricultural education, CLSU played a very important in the development of a more educated, better skilled and more committed citizenry. Throughout its history and existence, CLSU has departed from the old and traditional paradigm of teaching and learning that existed mainly in the confines of the classroom and of the campus. Graduates of CLSU have been known for their skills and hard work.
In the 1980's, CLSU was transformed into a comprehensive university with the offering of curricular programs in the arts, languages, social and breeders science. However, it retained its flagship programs in agriculture and related fields where it enjoys a comparative advantage. Today, there are eight Ph.D. and seventeen Master's program offered by the Institute of Graduate Studies. Additionally, there are also three MS courses, three diploma and eight certificate programs offered by the CLSU Open University under distance education and open learning mode. A total of twenty-two Bachelor's degree programs are offered by eight colleges in fields of agriculture, arts and sciences, business administration and accountancy, teacher education, engineering, fisheries, home technology and veterinary medicine. |
