Horticulture (BS)
Grow with us in the Horticulture Major. Our graduates go on to do sustainable farming; vineyard management; greenhouse & nursery production; breeding of new plant varieties; therapeutic horticulture; ecological management of golf courses, athletic fields, parks, botanical gardens, landscapes, urban centers and natural environments; and research on horticultural crops and systems.
We emphasize active learning and stress broad knowledge, critical thinking, field-based problem solving, analysis of novel situations, and application and synthesis from many areas. Our courses tackle contemporary real-world decisions faced by professional horticulturists. They include hands-on labs, diagnostics, landscape construction, and student-managed projects. Research opportunities are available. You will become skilled at finding and synthesizing information in order to manage the novel situations you will face during your horticultural career.
