In more than 50 years of service to date, the school of Graduate Studies has offered the M.S. degree in most fields of study. However, the M.A. degree is offered in the specialized field of English - African- American Literature, and the University now offers the MSW degree in Social Work.

A&T also has the only accredited agricultural and bio-systems engineering program of its kind among the nation's historically black colleges and universities. The University's masters programs offer the Master's Degree in Agriculture, Arts and Sciences, Business and Economic, Education, Engineering, and Technology. The University's doctoral programs offer the Ph.D. Degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial & Systems Engineering, Energy & Environmental Studies, and Leadership Studies.

Since the inception of the University's graduate programs, more than 6,500 students have completed advanced degrees at A&T, and significant numbers of those students have moved on to pursue more advanced degrees at the most prestigious universities in the state, nation, and world.

North Carolina A&T's membership in the Council of Graduate Schools - the largest national association organized specifically to advance graduate education in the United States and abroad - places it in the company of the finest institution of higher education in the world.
