CANR Spartans Are Having An Impact
All around us, the world is changing. Life in 2050 is going to present some unique challenges and trends – and we need people like you to help us create innovative solutions and affect positive change.
From how we produce our food to the places we live, we’ll need to develop innovative solutions to meet the demands of the years ahead. Here in the MSU College of Agriculture & Natural Resources (CANR), we are dedicated to meeting these challenges with forward-thinking solutions to advance the common good. Spartans Will.
Join Us: Together We Can Make a Difference
We believe our community is stronger when all voices are heard and honored.
We acknowledge as part of our history at Michigan State University and in the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources that:
Michigan State University occupies the ancestral, traditional and contemporary lands of the Anishinaabeg – Three Fires Confederacy of Ojibwe, Odawa and Potawatomi peoples. The university resides on land ceded in the 1819 Treaty of Saginaw.
To help make a difference in our world today and tomorrow, we must pursue:
- Learning that imbues current and future Spartans with intellectual curiosity and offers relevant knowledge, skills and opportunities to collaborate for the common good.
- Discovery that drives practical solutions to address global challenges and enhances research, scholarship and sustainable results.
- Engagement with society and communities that achieves social, economic and environmental equity across disciplines, boundaries and perspectives.
