The Science of plants includes how plants grow, what they need for growth, how they respond to their environment, how they evolved, and more. Plants are studied at various levels-from the chemical reactions and molecules fundamental to all life, to the role plants play in ecosystems.

The Department of Plant Sciences at the University of Arizona introduces students to a wide variety of subjects important to understanding and improving plants for human use and enjoyment.
Our faculty have active research programs that span the fields of Plant Biology, Genetics and Genomics, Horticultural and Crop sciences as well as specific research programs in Plant Pathology and Microbiology.
