The agricultural sciences address many challenges of life in the 21st century: renewable resources, environmental studies, genetic engineering, food development and management, water quality, veterinary medicine, plant science, geospatial technology, toxicology, forestry, wildlife management, and more. As a leading agricultural state, Pennsylvania stands ready to take advantage of expert scientists and technologists in these fields, and the Pennsylvania Governor's School for the Agricultural Sciences - PGSAS provides a program of activities to stimulate interest, leadership, and creativity in talented high school students who have the potential to address local, national, and global concerns.
