Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Horticulture] From West Virginia University

The nature of horticulture has changed as areas become more urban, and the program focuses on landscape management and production of nursery and greenhouse plants, which help meet the aesthetic needs in growing urban environments.

The demand for horticulture graduates is steadily increasing. Graduates find employment as orchard, vegetable farm or greenhouse managers, landscape contractors, golf course and park horticulturists, seed and supply company representatives, state and federal nursery inspectors, and educators in schools and extension offices.
