Research and Extension
As a land grant university, the ºÚÁÏÍø upholds a three-pronged mission of teaching, research and extension. The Margaret Ritchie School of Family and Consumer Sciences holds this mission at the core of its programming.
The school's campus and county-based faculty provide quality educational programs to address needs and improve the quality of life for ºÚÁÏÍø’s individuals and families. Our research and programs support our teaching and extension efforts.
