The West Virginia University Division for Land-Grant Engagement supports the teaching, research and service missions of the Davis College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, WVU Extension and WVU Center for Community Engagement. The Division brings together units which have historically defined WVU’s land-grant partnership with the federal government, including USDA-NIFA and other agencies.
This Division celebrates WVU’s history as marked by four federal acts: The Morrill, Hatch, Smith-Lever, McIntire-Stennis Cooperative Forestry Research acts.
Our faculty and staff are dedicated to carrying out the land-grant mission to provide knowledge and research to improve the lives and livelihoods of our students, alumni, community partners, and the state of West Virginia.
