The College of Agriculture, Forestry and Life Sciences is at the core of Clemson University’s land-grant heritage and is the beating heart of founder Thomas Green Clemson’s vision of a high seminary of learning that would reach beyond the boundaries of the academy to benefit South Carolina, its people, land, wildlife, natural resources and economy. CAFLS brings together the land-grant mission of teaching, research and Extension through world-class educational, inquiry and outreach opportunities, and partnerships with private industry and state and federal agencies.
