Horticulture

www. linnbenton. edu / go / agricultural-sciences The Horticulture program provides a broad range of instructional services. It provides( 1) occupational training for students who intend to receive a technical degree and work in horticulture;( 2) supplemental technical training for current horticultural employees;( 3) instruction for community members interested in a specific aspect of horticulture; and( 4) instruction for students interested in continuing their education in a four-year college program.
The Horticulture curriculum is based on competencies identified and reviewed by industry representatives and agricultural educators. Students study principles of horticulture, crop science and soil science with an emphasis on sustainable production and ecologically sound resource management.
Students develop the skills necessary for entry-and mid-level technical employments and for entering a four-year college program. Opportunities exist for horticulture students in arboriculture, floriculture, greenhouse operation and management, landscape planning and maintenance, retail landscape and garden center sales, nursery operation and management, and turf management.
The Horticulture curricula lead to an Associate of Science( AS), Associate of Applied Science degree( AAS) or a one-year certificate. Most classes in the Horticulture program are offered during the day, and part-time enrollment is common. Many students start in the middle of the academic year. Some courses are only offered every other year.
1 – Courses offered that term only. 2 – Other classes may substitute. See advisor. 6 – These courses must have been completed within the last five years. 7 – Course may be taken any term to accommodate a student’ s particular interests and scheduling considerations. See the requirements for the Associate of Science degree for approved courses. 8 – No more than two courses with the same alpha prefix may be used by a student to meet the general education requirement. See an advisor. 9 – A cost-recovery program. See“ Workforce Training” section for details.
