About the course
Increasing interest in outdoor recreational activities as well as aesthetically appealing landscaped areas has created a demand for professional turfgrass managers. The Turfgrass Management major is designed for maximum flexibility that allows students the opportunity to select one of two paths depending on their interest and future goals. Both paths give students the ability to secure a multitude of jobs or enter graduate school. Students completing the Turfgrass Management major will be knowledgeable in all aspects of plant and soil science. Particular emphasis is placed on learning environmentally sound strategies for controlling common turfgrass pests such as weeds, insects, and diseases. A careful balance of applied and basic sciences with courses in economics, business management, and accounting combined with on-the-job training opportunities will prepare students for an exciting career in the turfgrass and landscape industry.
