The International Association of Students in Agricultural and Related Sciences (IAAS) is an Organization that binds together all students worldwide that share a similar dream and ideals for Agricultural and the Related sciences. Since its inception in 1957, IAAS has played a significant role in transforming the Agricultural education world. This is manifested through its tireless effort exhibited through training and releasing to the different communities thousands of students and professionals with varying expertise that suit the biological sciences field.
