Support areas are available in the College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources (CAFNR) and the College of Education.
The graduate program is designed for students with interests in the fields of agricultural and extension education, communication and informal adult education.
Course work includes:
- Instructional design and delivery
- Teaching and learning theories and practices

The program may also serve as a support area for students seeking other graduate degrees in CAFNR, College of Education and College of Human Environmental Sciences.
