Format

MIAP students come from a variety of academic disciplines and degree backgrounds, agriculture and non-agriculture related. MIAP students have the opportunity to take classes that are relevant to their focus area; these could include agricultural entrepreneurship, applied issues in international agriculture, case studies in international trade and development, directed readings, food security and sustainability, and story telling.

Curriculum

The Master's of International Agriculture Program is a uniquely flexible degree program, with a number of course choices to suit your goals. Choose online courses from the Ferguson College of Agriculture or other departments on campus to create a master-level degree that fits YOU!

Graduates work in international agribusinesses, non-profit organizations, development agencies, government and diplomatic service, education, agricultural extension, agricultural trade associations and commodity groups and other positions in global agriculture.

MIAP allows you to create your own degree, but helps you target your energy by choosing a focus area. Students can choose complete a thesis, formal report, creative component, or professional internship.

MIAP Focus Areas

Dual Degree Programs

The Master of International Agriculture Program has partnered with Universidad Popular Autónoma del Estado de Puebla (UPAEP) and Universidad Autónoma Chapingo to offer dual-degree Master’s programs. These programs provide student participants from each institution with an opportunity to study in and benefit from the academic and cultural environment of the other institution. For each degree, the student will have a “home” institution and a “host” institution at which the student studies abroad, taking courses in partial fulfillment of the “host” institution’s degree requirements.

Academic Common Market

The Academic Common Market, coordinated by the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB), enables students to pursue out-of-state college degrees at in-state tuition rates through agreements among participating colleges and universities. As one of only three international agriculture graduate programs offered in the nation, the master of international agriculture program at OSU is offered through the Academic Common Market to students from other states in the region at in-state tuition rates.
