Turn your passion for farming into a career
Agricultural Management students at UCS’s Cannington campus benefit from access to our award-winning 180-hectare Rodway Farm – one of the region’s leading dairy units. Home to a high-performing Holstein herd and a state-of-the-art computerised milking parlour, the farm operates under a milk contract with Tesco Müller, giving students valuable insight into modern commercial dairy production.
Students also have access to our Agriculture Innovation Centre, featuring cutting-edge scientific equipment and industry-standard resources. The centre provides opportunities to take part in commercial trials, applied research projects, and hands-on learning that keeps students at the forefront of the rapidly evolving agricultural sector.
