Plant Studies provides a foundation for understanding how plants grow and how they can be managed in agricultural or horticultural production systems. Courses cover the principles and practices of plant production as well as plant health and soil management. Plant Studies can lead to level 3 (degree) studies in Agronomy (crops and pastures) and Horticultural Production (fruit, vegetable, nursery crops) as well as Lifestyle Horticulture (urban landscapes and environmental horticulture).
