农业硕士-农业与资源经济学

硕士是硕士学位，可为专业人员提供农业资源经济学或农村社会学方面的研究生培训。该计划的重点是研究结果的解释，改编和应用，而不是进行研究。此外，课程内容可以根据以前的经验，兴趣和专业需求，针对整个课程框架中的每个学生的特殊需求进行个性化定制。农业经济学是一个应用领域，通常探讨与农业，食品相关的问题生产和消费。资源经济学试图了解自然资源的供需，自然资源在经济中的作用以及如何为长期可持续性进行管理。这些领域也为环境问题做出了重大贡献。
The Masters in Agriculture program is designed for early and mid-career applicants to focus on topics in one of two areas: agricultural economics (agriculture and food policy, consumption, resources and environmental sustainability), or rural and environmental sociology (social movements, risk, resilience and Indigenous studies). Agricultural economics is an applied field that typically explores issues related to agriculture, food production and consumption. Resource economics seeks to understand the supply and demand of natural resources, their role in the economy, and how to manage them for long term sustainability. These fields also make significant contributions to environmental issues. Research in REES has focused on resource, environment, and development economics, agriculture and food markets/policy, production economics and development, agricultural business, international agriculture, international development and trade.
