The Department of Agricultural
Chemistry of the College of Bioresources and Agriculture is a unit of the
graduate school and offers a flexible program of study for the M.S. and
Ph.D. in various disciplines: soil chemistry, soil survey and
classification, molecular microbiology, environmental microbiology,
industrial microbiology, electron microscopy, plant nutrition, pesticide
chemistry, food chemistry, nutrition chemistry, plant biochemistry, and
others.
The curriculum usually begins
with early emphasis on laboratory research experience. The doctorate program
begins with one year of courses fitted each student's particular needs. In
the second and subsequent years, essentially full time devoted to research
is required. The doctorate program particularly emphasizes competent
independent research. Graduate students need to enroll in one seminar course
per semester in the first and second years. Creativity is provided by the
participation with the faculty in discussion groups. At least one paper
published in international scientific journal is required for graduates
seeking for the degree of Ph.D.
