Graduate Programs
If you desire to continue your education beyond a bachelor's degree, we offer a variety of programs through which you can earn graduate certificates or master's or doctoral degrees.
We offer both Master of Science (M.S.) degrees and Master of Agriculture (M.Ag.) degrees. An M.S. option allows students to obtain a master's via a more traditional route, including a combination of coursework and research. The M.Ag. program offers flexibility in curriculum that permits special emphasis and application in some areas and broader overall knowledge in others. It is important to note that the M.Ag. is considered a terminal degree and is not suggested if you desire to pursue an additional degree upon completion.
The Ferguson College of Agriculture has graduate program coordinators in each department. View the provided list to identify a coordinator in your area of interest.

Our graduate programs are offered on the Stillwater (STW) campus and some are offered via distance learning (DL).
