Seed Technology and Business – Master’s
Summary
The STB program, delivered entirely online, is focused on preparing students for seed-related management roles. The curriculum consists of fifteen courses that are developed and delivered by full-time faculty members from Iowa State University and other U.S. universities. Business courses highlight seed-related issues, while the science and technology courses focus on practical applications. Courses emphasize interactivity with fellow students and faculty. You will be encouraged to share your work experiences with other members of the group.
