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 undergraduate majors in Viticulture (grape growing) and Enology (winemaking). The programs address the unique challenges we face - climates, soils, varieties, pests and markets in cool-climate wine-producing regions. The Cornell Viticulture and Enology Programs are unique in addressing the specific needs of cool-climate regions and it offers two majors to meet your needs.
