The department of Plant Science offers programs that will train tomorrow's ecologists, botanists, agrologists, and biotechnologists.
This M.Sc. in Plant Science requires approximately two years for completion.
The program consists of two graduate-level courses, seminars, and a research project leading to a thesis.
Students must complete a 45-credit course and research program established by their supervisor and advisory committee.
The challenge of using the knowledge accumulated in the field of biology to answer these questions falls in great part to plant scientists. Subsequent career paths are varied but include work with government agencies, the private sector, or further graduate studies in a related field.
