Master of Agriculture
The M.Ag. program in Agricultural Business Management is designed to provide graduate professional training without a research orientation. It is for students interested in managerial or service careers in agriculture and related industries. Those who select this option normally do not plan to do graduate work beyond the Master's Program. The minimum thirty-six (36) credit hours are required both from Agricultural and Applied Economics and from other departments, with considerable flexibility permitted to meet special interests.
Final Examination
The student's graduate committee will conduct an oral examination after all other requirements for the degree have been completed. The chairperson of the student's graduate committee must establish an examination date and notify the other members of the student's graduate committee and faculty in the department at least 5 working days prior to the final examination. The student is expected to defend the thesis or M.S. research paper and demonstrate an ability to discuss issues of importance in the chosen areas of specialization.
