The Agriscience master's sequence lets students concentrate in horticulture, animal science or agronomy. The content blends life science, chemistry and applied farming topics.
Learning takes place partly at the department's teaching and research farm near Lexington, Illinois. A graduate advisor guides students through the program, which is housed in the Department of Agriculture.
Prospective graduate students can register for a visit to see what graduate life at Illinois State is like. The Graduate School handles admission and reviews transcripts, while the university catalog lists the course requirements. Department contacts can answer questions about planning a course of study and the steps for applying. Applicants should read the program page for details on sequencing, advising and any extra materials the department asks them to send alongside the standard transcripts, so reading it early helps applicants prepare a complete file.
