Kansas State University

The Kansas State University Master of Agribusiness program is an online business-focused master’s degree built around the busy lives of food, animal health and agribusiness professionals. The innovative online delivery of the program breaks down barriers associated with earning a master’s degree such as access to a university campus, job changes, relocations, and job-related travel. Our program is structured to appeal to professionals employed in all segments of the industry, and is geared toward adult learners. Not an MBA in agribusiness, and not an M.S. in Agricultural Economics, but a professional degree program training managers for one of the most rapidly changing industries today. The program consists of 36 hours of coursework plus a six hour thesis for a total of 42 credit hours for the degree. The first two years, students come to campus for one week to begin new sets of courses.They return for a second week to take finals and give presentations. The rest of the year, courses are completely at a distance via the internet, flashdrives, email and live recitation sessions.
