Choosing a Great Agricultural Production School for Your Doctor's Degree

The agricultural production doctor's degree program you select can have a big impact on your future. This section explores some of the factors we include in our ranking and how much they vary depending on the school you select. When choosing a school we recommend considering some of the following factors:

Quality Overall Is Important

The overall quality of a doctor's degree school is important to ensure a good education, not just how well they do in a particular major. To make it into this list a school must rank well in our overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking. This ranking considered factors such as graduation rates, overall graduate earnings and other educational resources to identify great colleges and universities.

Average Earnings

To determine the overall quality of a graduate school, one factor we look at is the average early-career salary of those receiving their doctor's degree from the school. After all, your doctor's degree won't mean much if it doesn't help you find a job that will help you earn a living.

Other Factors We Consider

In addition to the above, you should consider some of the following factors:

• Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to agricultural production students as compared to other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other agricultural production students want to attend this school to pursue a doctor's degree.
• Educational Resources - The amount of money and other resources allocated to students while they are pursuing their degree. These resources include such things as number of students per instructor and education expenditures per student.
• Student Debt - How much debt agricultural production students go into to obtain their doctor's degree and how well they are able to pay back that debt.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized agricultural production related body.

Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for agricultural production students working on their doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for the United States

Because of lacking data, we could not show you the agricultural production quality ranking. This is usually due to there not being enough schools in the United States that both offer agricultural production and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
