Bachelor of Science in Plant Sciences - Plant Genetics and Biotechnology Concentration

Program Overview

The plant genetics and biotechnology concentration is designed for students wishing to pursue advanced degrees in plant molecular biology, bioenergy, and biotechnology and/or careers in the plant biotechnology industry. For example, the curriculum will prepare students to be competitive for entrance into MS and PhD degree programs, which in turn, prepare students for life as professional scientists. Alternatively, the plant biotechnology industry and biotechnology-affiliated industries have recurrent demand for competent BS-level scientists. One hallmark of the degree is requirement for students to participate in research directly in an affiliated faculty member’s lab or outside internship. This hands-on experience is reported by students to be a highlight of their degree program.
