Our department's research explores intricate agricultural and biological systems spanning from microscopic to planetary dimensions, blending human and societal factors with natural and cultivated environments. The Agricultural and Biological Engineering graduate programs offer diverse research prospects in areas like smart farming, biotech innovations, decision-making tools, and predictive modeling. Alumni gain strong analytical skills, cross-disciplinary expertise, and practical approaches for addressing real-world challenges through scientific applications.
Through the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, students can pursue advanced degrees in agricultural studies, environmental resources, woodland and mapping sciences, biological sciences, human behavior studies, and pre-professional preparation programs.
Students must have a recognized baccalaureate, graduate or professional degree from a regionally accredited U.S. institution or a comparable degree from an international institution. For applicants with a bachelor’s degree only, a minimum grade point average of B (3.0), calculated from all grades and credits after the semester where the applicant reached 60 semester hours or 90 quarter hours and Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores that are acceptable to the applicant’s intended academic unit or, for select programs, at least 465 on the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT).
For applicants from countries (including Puerto Rico) where English is not the official language, a minimum score on one of these English Language Skills tests: Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL): 550 paper, or 80 Internet; International English Language Testing System (IELTS): 6; Michigan English Language Assessment Battery (MELAB): 77, or documented successful completion of the University of Florida English Language Institute program.
