Undergraduate – Introduction
New York and the Northeast face a serious shortage of people with the skills to grow grapes and make wine.
Programs tailored to New York and other cool-climate regions
Due to rapid growth in the region's wine industry, there simply aren't enough people qualified to manage vineyards and run wineries.
Cornell is helping to fill this void by creating the undergraduate major in Viticulture and Enology. Although there is now one major, students are able to concentrate in either Viticulture (grape growing) or Enology (winemaking). The program addresses the unique challenges we face - climates, soils, varieties, pests and markets in cool-climate wine-producing regions. The Cornell Viticulture and Enology Program is unique in addressing the specific needs of cool-climate regions and it offers this new major to meet your needs.
