The results of trained horticulturists are all around us every day.  Where an individual chooses to focus their energy determines which area of the horticultural field they will eventually work in.  Horticulturists are responsible for the fruits and vegetables that we eat, the parks we relax in and the landscapes we enjoy.  More than just ‘’plant science’’, horticultural students study the relationships between plants, soils, insects, animals and man.  While numerous career paths are available to a student with an Associate of Science degree, additional opportunities and income potential can be found in the pursuit of a four year degree and beyond.
