One degree, two land-grant faculties: our master's program is offered cooperatively with Washington State University, with courses taught by faculty from both departments — eight miles apart on the Palouse.
Train in economic theory and quantitative methods, then put them to work on agricultural markets, agribusiness strategy, and natural resource and community questions across the West.
Management, marketing and finance questions facing food and agricultural firms.
Production, markets, trade and policy for the region's major commodities.
Water, land, rangeland and environmental economics in the American West.
Courses taught by University of Idaho and WSU faculty — the depth of two departments behind a single U of I degree.
Bachelor's with a 3.0 GPA; GRE only for the thesis track; TOEFL 79 / IELTS 6.5 / Duolingo 115 for international applicants.
Transcripts, three letters of recommendation, statement of purpose, and a résumé/CV. Say which emphasis — and which faculty — interest you.
Submit everything through U of I Graduate Admissions. Thesis option: deadline January 15 (this cycle also decides assistantships). Non-thesis: rolling, fall and spring starts.
Admission and funding are decided by the graduate committee from the full applicant pool — there is no need to contact faculty beforehand. Logistics questions go to the department office below.
