Kansas Corn is dedicated to providing programs and opportunities for college students interested in careers in the corn industry. We have developed a comprehensive program for college students to learn about careers in corn and agriculture, a collegiate academy for students looking for additional career development, a scholarship program and a special student rate for KCGA membership.

Collegiate Academy

The Kansas Corn Collegiate Academy gives college students the opportunity to dive deeper into the corn industry. It gives students insights into the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead of the corn industry and how corn may fit into their future career paths. Participating students will  create a capstone project that will relate the information they have learned back to their area of study. Students will participate in a day at the Statehouse in Topeka and Corn Congress in Washington D.C.

Kansas Corn’s Career Connections program connects college students with potential career paths related to the corn industry. Check out our online resource that highlights the career paths of a wide variety of ag professionals.
