Getting a Master’s Degree in Hemp from Cornell University
Manage episode 382913536 series 2432853
After making this weekly podcast for over 5 years, it feels like I’ve earned a bachelor's degree in hemp.
Unfortunately, the Lancaster Farming Industrial Hemp Podcast is not an accredited, degree-conferring institution.
Perhaps in the Land of Oz, the Wizard would give me a diploma just for showing up, but here in the real world, what if I actually wanted to get a degree in hemp? Where would I go?
I would go to Cornell, of course.
Cornell University offers a Master’s of Professional Studies in Integrative Plant Sciences with a concentration in hemp sciences.
It’s a one year intensive program that will prepare you for a career in hemp.
On this episode I talk to professors Heather Grab and Larry Smart to get a sense of what this program is all about, what you can expect as a student at Cornell, and what you can expect as a graduate.
I also talk to two graduates of Cornell’s MPS hemp program, Tony Barraco and William Sale, both of whom now have good jobs in the hemp industry.
According to Dr. Smart, “You probably won’t find any other place like Cornell that has a mix of both state and private colleges and also that blend of an Ivy League atmosphere blended with a land grant university like the Big Ten schools.”
