In 1909, Brigham Young University renamed and refocused the mission of its College. The Church Teachers College absorbed the College's departments but centered their energies into thoroughly preparing collegiate students to become high school educators. The Department of Agriculture was not carried over after the name change but was reorganized in 1910. In 1920, when the College was split into the School of Arts and Sciences and the School of Education, the Department of Agriculture retained its name and function under the administration of the School of Arts and Sciences.
