Departmental Overview

The agricultural extension is mandated to provide the latest agricultural innovations to farmers in a convincing way, without which agricultural development is not possible. For effective technology transfer, the extension worker must have certain qualifications to efficiently perform multi-faceted agricultural tasks. Keeping these facts in view, a full-fledged Department of Agricultural Extension Education has been established under the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences. The department is currently offering graduate courses according to the guidelines of the Higher Education Commission (HEC), Pakistan. The department will soon start M.Sc. (Hons.) and Ph.D. programs in Agricultural Extension.
