About the course

The curriculum prepares individuals for careers as golf superintendents at private, daily fee, and resort courses or as sports turf managers at city, school and professional sports turf facilities (i.e. football, baseball, soccer fields).

The curricula focus is on the application of sciences to the integrated management of turfgrasses for athletic fields and golf courses. Central to this course of study is the dedication to conserve, maintain, and enhance our environment. Students from our program have greater than 95% job placement rate in the industry of their choosing. The Golf and Sports Turf Management concentration is in the Agronomy major.
