Biographical history
Home to a working farm, 1000 acres of research fields, gardens and greenhouses, the Faculty of Agriculture was established in September 2012 with the merger of the century-old Nova Scotia College of Agriculture (NSAC) and Dalhousie University. The institutions were first affiliated in 1985 by an academic agreement for degree granting purposes in association with Dalhousie and representation by NSAC on the Dalhousie Senate. This agreement was expanded in the 1990s to include MSc and PhD degrees and, after the June 2012 merger, the former NSAC campus in Bible Hill, Nova Scotia, became home to the university’s Faculty of Agriculture.
Custodial history
Records were transferred to the Agricola Archives from various donors, including alumni and people in the agricultural industry, and departments of the Faculty of Agriculture campus.
