It is designed to fulfil the needs and demands of those who have qualifications in disciplines other than horticulture and who wish to emphasise the study of the horticultural system from a technological, sociological and management perspective. It is expected that most prospective students will be employed currently, or in the future, in the horticulture industry, or be involved in the development and provision of horticultural services.
