Sustainable agriculture students often learn about the food production process. A degree in this field can prepare graduates for jobs at research institutions or livestock companies. Besides learning about crops and farming, students may also take classes in statistics and microbiology.

Once you have obtained a graduate degree in business and have significant hands-on experience, the next step is an Executive MBA (EMBA). Programs combine fundamentals such as finance, accounting and marketing with leadership studies to get you into high-level executive and management positions.
