Food, Agricultural and Resource Economics

The graduate programs in Food, Agricultural and Resource Economics offers opportunities for master of science (MSc), master in food, agricultural and resource economics (MFARE) and doctor of philosophy (PhD) studies in agricultural economics. The thesis-based MSc and PhD are research-oriented degrees which require both course work and a thesis. The course-based MFARE degree requires either course work with a major research paper or course work alone.

The MSc, MFARE and PhD program in Food, Agricultural and Resource Economics focuses on two major fields of emphasis:

• Food and agricultural economics

• Natural resource and environmental economics
