North Dakota State University is an equal opportunity educator and employer. You’ll find us at work in your county, at Research Extension Centers, and at the main campus of North Dakota State University. As North Dakotans work to improve their lives, we’re there to help. Our efforts have a special emphasis on strengthening agriculture and developing the potential of youth, adults, and communities. Our efforts are funded by county, state, and federal government. NDSU Extension and the Agricultural Experiment Station (NDAES)’s work is supported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture. USDA programs are prohibited from discriminating based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability, age, marital status, family/parental status, income derived from a public assistance program, political beliefs, or reprisal or retaliation for prior civil rights activity.
