Iowa State University is committed to supporting your graduate education journey. To help you get started, we've compiled application requirements and useful resources for additional details. Take time to investigate these opportunities.
For doctoral candidates, specializing in Agricultural Extension Education involves completing graduate-level courses in key disciplines: instructional techniques (AGEDS 520), program development (AGEDS 524), technology dissemination (AGEDS 561), assessment methods (see recommendations), and management (AGEDS 625). Dissertation work must also focus on agricultural extension education topics.
Those pursuing Extension careers may find value in supplementary electives tied to extension education, which align with the Certificate in Education and Outreach for Agriculture and Natural Resources. It's possible to obtain both the Specialization and Certificate simultaneously.
