Many of our SES faculty provide formal outreach and extension services to the commonwealth, either as UMass Extension faculty in the Center for Agriculture, Food, and the Environment or in appointed state positions. Our programs are enriched by faculty engagement in communities, cities, farms, and resource areas throughout the commonwealth. Their connection to real-world projects brings a deeper meaning to the hands-on learning and courses these faculty members provide to students.
