I do like the unique degree program of Master of Agriculture offered at Colorado State University. Their program specializes in environmental studies that help sustain natural resources for farmers, ranches, and rural communities. I also like that this program is affordable and that Colorado State University. I really like that there is no on-campus attendance required to complete this program. This program is projected for completion within two years, but a student may complete it earlier as that approximation did not take into consideration any summer coursework. Their curriculum applies to a number of careers in local, state and regional agencies dealing with land and resource management, such as the Bureau of Land Management and the Forest Service Wildlife and forest management. I also like that one of the instructors uses a virtual field trips as a support tool for classes. Each member of faculty seems high qualified in their area of expertise. While I like that they are on a semester system, this limits the admission to the program to two times a year. This program is explained in great detail to what the student should expect. I also like that completing the courses toward the degree is self-paced and self-directed. Moreover, that the completion of a professional paper (no thesis is required and students have the opportunity to one or two internships arranged and approved by your academic adviser.
