Plant Biology Major
If you appreciate the diversity and beauty of plant life, are
concerned about ecology, and are fascinated by the mechanisms behind plant growth and
development, you'll enjoy the Plant Biology major. This
rigorous curriculum gives you a strong science background and exposure to
the full scope of the plant world, from the smallest components of a cell to a whole plant.
As a plant biology major, you can work on an individual research
project guided by a department faculty scientist.
This major prepares you for careers in
- plant biotechnology,
- genetics,
- molecular biology,
- physiology,
- plant pathology, and
- weed science.
