 Graduate
Degree Information
The Department of Horticultural Science at North Carolina State
University offers graduate programs leading to the Master of Science
(MS) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degrees. A thesis based on original
research is required for these degrees. Completion of these degrees
normally takes 2 to 2 1/2 years for the Masters and 3 to 3 1/2 years
for the Doctor of Philosophy.
For students who do not plan further graduate study or who wish
to substitute additional courses for the research requirements in
their graduate programs, the Master of Horticultural Science (MHS)
degree is offered. Generally, this is considered a terminal degree.
