What Do Horticulture Employers Expect of Recent College Grads?

Researchers would like your help to identify your expectations, as an employer, of college students who have completed a plant pathology coursework. Researchers from the University of Florida are seeking to compare course content knowledge and skills with those identified as important by employers in the horticulture and plant science fields and created a survey to this end.

If you hire and/or supervise employees with a BS degree with less than 3 years’ experience, you are asked to participate in the survey. All results are anonymous and confidential. The deadline to complete the survey is August 31, 2016.
