Horticulturists don't grow on trees that's where we come in
High school is in the rearview mirror, and now you’re thinking about coming to Iowa State University to study horticulture. So, what’s the hold up?
Turn your passion into a profession.
On your horticulture adventure, you’ll learn how to feed the world and make the world more beautiful. Check out our six undergraduate options, curriculum, minors, potential careers and study abroad on your quest to change the world.
You’ll be able to learn and work beside industry-leading professors who literally write the books others teach from. As a first-year student, you’ll participate in an active-learning, hands-on laboratory experience in our state-of-the-art classrooms, a Horticulture Research Farm and greenhouses.
You’ll also experience course field trips to farms and vineyards, golf courses, sports fields, landscape construction and management firms, and more. Take advantage of our social and learning communities to help you with classwork and make life-long friends.
The rich and supportive learning environment and outstanding facilities contained within Horticulture Hall make our department unique. But don’t just take our word for it. Come for a visit and see for yourself.
