Master of Agriculture

The Master of Agriculture degree is designed to 1) improve the skill set of individuals currently working in the horticulture industry, and 2) provide the knowledge base needed by others interested in beginning new careers, starting their own business, or pursuing personal interests in horticulture. The degree provides a solid foundation of contemporary horticultural knowledge, yet is flexible enough to allow individuals to focus on the specific skills they wish to hone.
