Plant Health
Minor
Students who minor in plant health will study how plant health can be affected by plant pathogens, insect pests and invasive plants or weeds. Both human and ecosystem health are dependent upon plant health. This minor pairs well with majors in biology, soil and crop sciences, horticulture, forest and rangeland stewardship, microbiology and natural resources management.
