Lorraine and others. If i am not mistaken Melbourne Uni will be changing their
degree structure in 2008 thus making 2007 the last year where students can
specialise in Agriculture from first year. In 2008 students will undertake a
general two year program and then spend another 3 years specialising in
Agriculture. If this is not correct let me know. Regards Andrew Cosby.</span></font></p>
