Doctoral Program Characteristics and Rankings in Agricultural Economics

Abstract

A 1989 survey of 30 agricultural economics departments that offer Ph.D. programs indicated a diversity of requirements with 93 and 73 percent requiring microeconomic and macro-economic examinations, respectively. The average Ph.D. program required 4.6 years, but varied from three to eight years to complete, depending on the university. A longer Ph.D. program was found to be correlated with a more highly ranked department.
