The School of Plant Life Environmental Science

The School of Plant Life Environmental Science aims to efficiently produce and use edible, medicinal, specialty, horticultural, and decorative plants among the various plant resources in nature. We teach students and research the development of plant resources and horticultural plants and their various uses in relation to human health. The School of Plant Life Environmental Science offers four majors: the Department of Plant Resource ＆ Life Sciences, the Department of Plant Environmental Sciences, the Department of Medicinal Plant Sciences, and the Department of Horticultural Science. We apply the fundamentals of Plant Genetics, Breeding, Molecular Cell Biology, Plant Physiology, Agro-ecology, Biochemistry, Plant Pathology, and Statistics to discuss new technologies and methodologies. Students take courses such as Eco-structure, Environmental Impact Assessment and Environmental Toxicity, Sustainable & Organic Agriculture, Institutional Horticulture, Post-harvest Management, Flower Design, and Horticultural Therapy.
