Georgia
Plant Science Scholars (GAPSS)
Designed to introduce high school students to the opportunities
available in plant sciences, GAPSS is sponsored by the College
of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences departments of
Crop & Soil Sciences, Horticulture, and Plant Pathology
and the Warnell School of Forest Resources. Each summer, students
spend two and half days at UGA, touring the campus and participating
in hands-on science experiments with UGA faculty and staff.
For more information, visit the website contact Kisha
Shelton (706/542-1426).
Animal Science in Action
Aspiring animal scientists have the unique opportunity to study animal agriculture as never before. Rising high school juniors and seniors are invited to participate in this two-day program where "hands-on" means getting "down and dirty." Nutrition, genetics, reproduction, biotechnology, and management of horses, beef and dairy cows, sheep, and swine are explored during this fun-filled camp.
Avian Adventures
The state of Georgia raises more poultry than any other state in the U.S. In fact, if Georgia were a country, it would be the 4th largest producer of poultry in the world. Three fun-filled days await high school juniors and senior students as they investigate Georgia's largest agricultural industry. This is an excellent, "hands-on" opportunity for students interested in veterinary medicine, biology or science.
