Welcome to the Department of Plant Science

Plant Science is the study of how plants work (reproduction, development and anatomy, physiology and evolution), as well as how humans use them for food, fiber, bioactive compounds and ornamental purposes.

We have long known that plants play an important role in maintaining the Earth鈥檚 delicate ecosystems and are essential to human survival. In recent decades, we have also discovered that they are vital in addressing the planet鈥檚 most pressing problems, including climate change and food security, and plant scientists are heeding the call to find solutions to these global threats.

Our researchers are dedicated leaders in their fields, addressing questions such as: How are plants reacting to a changing climate? How do we preserve genetic diversity? How can we keep feeding the growing population quality food while resources are becoming scarcer than ever?

We provide our students with opportunities to learn by participating in meaningful research in an academic environment unique in Canada that includes an on-site farm, field, greenhouse, and laboratory facilities. 苹果淫院 Plant Science students receive rich hands-on experience and training that equip them with the skills and knowledge to move into exciting and impactful careers in plant science.
