Solid academic preparation can open the door to an exciting future. And if that future includes scientific exploration using plants, then you should take a closer look at the Horticulture Department. Our students are our number one priority.

We offer an exciting opportunity for students to major in one of two areas:

(1) Commercial Crop Production and
      Marketing /Plant Health Management
(2) Plant Science and Biotechnology

The small classes in our professional courses enable us to provide a "hands-on" learning experience that is the hallmark of

our program. As a result, you will receive a comprehensive education in the science, art and business of horticulture.

Our faculty members have diverse training and interest areas, resulting in an exciting mix of courses and educational experiences. Each faculty member maintains close contact with the horticultural industry, and the information and techniques, which you learn in our program, are on the "cutting edge" of a very exciting field of science!

Horticulture has a global impact in serving and sustaining humanity, while protecting the environment. Your degree in Horticulture can truly make a difference!
