Ornamental Horticultural Program

Horticulture in Utah is a $805 million industry, employing over 17,000 full-time equivalent workers with a payroll in excess of $305 million. Jobs are available in many areas from retail nursery, golf course turf management, floral shops, greenhouse production to indoor/outdoor landscape maintenance and design.

The Utah State University program offers horticulture classes, in the evening in Ogden, Kaysville, Salt Lake City and Orem. An Applied Associate of Science degree is offered, and all approved classes taken for this will also count toward a Bachelor of Science degree. A one-year certificate and a two-year diploma are also available.

It is not necessary to be admitted to USU to begin taking the off-campus classes, however you should apply as soon as possible. This will facilitate advising, financial aid and graduation.
