The MS degree in Horticulture may be earned for a program of study comprising at least 30 hours of work including credit for graduate thesis work, which constitutes a major portion of the degree program. Opportunities to develop research projects exist in a broad range of horticultural topics such as:

• Low-temperature tolerance
• Landscape plant production
• Blueberry physiology and hardiness
• Pomology
• Greenhouse management

The graduate Horticulture program at the University of Maine is available through the School of Food and Agriculture. It is a multi-dimensional program that offers graduate students the opportunity to explore the many aspects of horticulture through course work, teaching, extension, and scholarly research. Opportunities exist in a broad range of horticultural commodities such as: ornamental plant selection and evaluation, low-temperature tolerance, landscape plant production, blueberry physiology and hardiness, greenhouse production and management, homology, tissue culture, and weed management. Students are encouraged to participate in all aspects of the Horticulture program and develop a well-rounded curriculum of study.

Students entering the graduate Horticulture program will be required to develop an original research project in one of the many facets of horticulture. In doing so, students will have access to extensive facilities such as the horticulture greenhouses, The Lyle E. Littlefield Ornamentals Trial Garden and Research Center, tissue culture and other lab equipment, as well as several other research facilities. Also, an extensive relationship exists with local, state, national, and international horticulture professionals, and graduate students are encouraged to not only take advantage of these resources, but to also provide a conduit between the program and industry members. Prospective students are encouraged to contact a faculty member directly for more information on individual research interests and potential courses of study.
