MA/MS in Agricultural Business and Management

This master's program at Utah State University prepares students to analyze decisions made by firms in food production and agribusiness. Training leans on quantitative economics and business methods, and learners can pair classroom study with an internship or applied research project on real cases. Coursework covers risk analysis, strategy, marketing of farm products, pricing studies and econometric methods. Applicants do not need GRE or GMAT results. Admission is continuous, with new cohorts beginning in either the spring or fall term, and a motivated student may finish in a single year. Graduates look toward marketing and sales roles, accounting positions, credit analysis at regional banks serving agriculture, and consulting for companies or public agencies. The department expects an undergraduate background in agribusiness, economics or a related field, or equivalent economics and statistics coursework.
