课程简介
The Plant Science MS program provides training in the plant sciences through core and elective coursework and research opportunities in molecular, cellular, genetic, genomic, and physiological aspects of plants, including model organisms, crops, and wild relatives. New MS students have the opportunity to rotate through two labs, to gain experience with the scientific questions and techniques employed in each. Following the selection of a permanent lab and a Major Advisor, students deepen their expertise in that lab's research area through participation in all aspects of the lab activities. With guidance from the Major Advisor, students then develop and execute a novel research project and disseminate their results through a Master's Thesis and potentially a scientific publication.<br>Core coursework is minimal and includes cross-training in plant microbiology, to ensure a solid foundation in major plant biotic interactions. Elective coursework, chosen in consultation with the student's advisors, deepens expertise in areas related to the intended direction within plant science research.<br>The Plant Science MS prepares students for careers in agency, industry, and academic institutions that require a solid background in plant science and experience with research techniques and experimental design.<br>Plants underpin the survival of all life on Earth. We put science to work to provide foundational research and knowledge to support everything from food security to environmental sustainability. From unlocking the secrets of microbes and fungal symbionts to developing drought-tolerant crops and engineering biofuels, our work has real-world impact. We offer invaluable opportunities in and out of the classroom, engaging students in hands-on experiences through state-of-the-art facilities, like the Controlled Environment Agricultural Center (CEAC) and the University of Arizona Herbarium.
