    I did a bachelor of Agricultural Science in UCD in Horticulture, landscape and Sportsturf Management. Graduated in 2013, i know a few people who did it and have jobs now. Its a very good course and can be tough especially in 3rd and 4th year. You should look at youtube video of it too. You can always do the omnibus in first year and then decide to pick exactly what course you want to do.

    Hey!
    I am currently in 1st year in Food and Agribusiness management.
    In first year it's very general.
    You'll be in classes with all the people in other agricultural courses.
    You do a lot of sciences and then also a bit of economics.
    There is a module called "Intro to food and agribusiness" which is cool!
    You go to farms and stuff on field trips.

    I didn't get food science last year so I went into this course instead which I think is better employment wise as you can get into food processing, food legislation as well as business careers etc.
