Welcome

Diverse strengths across the biological sciences, a commitment to biodiversity, and the translation of groundbreaking discoveries into commercial practice and educational outreach make the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences one of the leading colleges in the world.
Our faculty, staff, and students come to leadership naturally — much of the world’s pioneering work in plant and animal health has been conducted by Cornell faculty and students in fields, greenhouses, and laboratories, both here and abroad.
We encourage you to join our partnership.
