Internships and Independent
Study Projects
Ornamental horticulture students are required to complete
on-the-job training (internship) while attending UW-Platteville.
Students must complete at least one, three-credit
internship during their undergraduate studies. Internships
are available at nationally recognized greenhouses, nurseries,
garden centers, botanical gardens and entertainment
theme parks. For example, several of our students have
participated in the student internship programs at Walt
Disney World Florida. Internships provide students excellent
practical experience while earning money and
college credits.
Students are also encouraged to participate in independent
study projects with faculty. These are typically research
projects in any area of ornamental horticulture or plant
biotechnology.
