专业概况

在这里学什么？

A leader in the application of new institutional economics to agriculture, development, and policy analysis, the Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics at the University of Missouri is recognized for its innovative approach to graduate training in agricultural economics.

M.S. degree in agricultural economics prepares students for a rewarding career in academia, agricultural business, government or international agriculture. Students can study agribusiness management, contracting and strategy; collective action and cooperative theory; econometrics and price analysis; entrepreneurship; environmental and natural resource economics; food, biofuel and agricultural policy and regulation; international development; regional economics and rural development policy; science policy and innovation; sustainable agriculture and applied ethics. The MS program may be a step toward the Ph.D. but may also be used as a terminal program for those interested in careers in agribusiness, extension or government. Programs are flexible.

Degree Requirements

For the MS degree, students must complete a minimum of 30 hours selected from courses in one of three focus areas (Environmental and Development Economics; Managerial, Behavioral & Organizational Economics; Public Policy Analysis). Specific course requirements are determined by each focus area. All course work needs to be from courses numbered 7000-9000. The program includes graduate-level courses in microeconomic theory and quantitative methods. Students opting for the MS thesis must complete at least six credit hours of research as part of the minimum 30 hours. An alternative MS non-thesis program requires that additional course work be substituted for thesis research.
