The INTAD dual-title graduate degree program is administered by the INTAD Academic Program Committee.

Members of the Graduate Faculty in INTAD also serve on master's and doctoral committees for students who are accepted into the dual-title program. This dual-title program enables students to learn about international agriculture while maintaining a close association with their primary area of interest in their home department.
