The study of agriculture, a founding basis for the institution, was formalized into a college in 1903.

The present-day College of Agriculture and Life Science (CALS) presents a broad array of opportunities for the study of life, encompassing 9 schools and departments. Together, they offer 17 majors and 45 concentrations for undergraduates and 17 majors and 38 concentrations for graduate degrees.
