Master in Horticultural Science

The application deadline for Master in Horticultural Science is Jan 15, 2027; tuition fees for Master in Horticultural Science are 344,000 SEK for the whole program.

This Master's programme covers fruit, vegetable and berry production chains and plants for indoor and outdoor environments, including cultivation technology, microbiology, plant breeding, economics, value chains and product quality. Students choose elective courses to specialise in either social or natural science.

In the first semester, all students take courses in horticultural systems and challenges, and product development and innovation, before choosing a natural-science or social-science profile. Applicants who already hold a Bachelor's degree in horticulture can obtain a horticulturist qualification alongside the Master's degree.

Graduates work in land-based industries, as advisors and experts at government agencies, or within the food trade and other organisations, or continue to PhD study.
