The research pathway focuses on sustaining scholarly inquiry to ensure well-informed discussions and decision-making. Participants gain hands-on experience in conducting original research, culminating in a thesis project. Established in 2007, UW-Madison's Agroecology MS program educates students to examine farming systems through comprehensive environmental and socioeconomic lenses. Based in the Department of Plant and Agroecosystem Sciences, the program collaborates with faculty from nearly 20 campus departments.
Each year's cohort typically includes 8-12 students from varied academic backgrounds. Agroecology graduate students collaborate with professors on specialized research spanning multiple academic disciplines. The core curriculum unites these scholars for interdisciplinary analysis of agricultural systems within expanded frameworks.
