Crop Sciences
At the University of Reading, we offer several routes to a doctoral qualification, including this PhD in Crop Sciences.
Horticultural Biology
Although emphasis is on horticultural plants and systems commonly found in areas of temperate climate, graduate study on species and cropping systems of tropical areas is also possible by use of our extensive greenhouse and growth chamber facilities, and through conduct of thesis research in tropical areas. The Horticultural Biology program is offered by Cornell University.
Agronomy
Incoming Agronomy students at Kansas State University , commonly have a Bachelor of Science degree in agriculture, agronomy, crop science, soil science, or a related life science. The most important considerations for applicants are an interest in continued study and intensive research in a specific area of agronomy along with minimum prerequisites for admission to the program.
