Ringkasan program

This program provides knowledge about turfgrass physiology and it is related to management practices. The program emphasizes managing quality turf areas with reduced inputs, thereby reducing potential risk to the environment. Courses in other disciplines, such as soil science, plant pathology, and entomology will allow students to become well-rounded scientists, able to find solutions to the challenges that are facing the turfgrass industry. Graduates have pursued careers as golf-course superintendents, athletic-field mangers, lawn-care specialists, research scientists, and salespersons.
