Practise your horticulture skills in large grounds that include sprawling lawns, gardens, nurseries, and reclaimed forest parks.

An increased focus from both the public and private sector on horticultural biodiversity and sustainability is helping to drive employment growth in the industry. More than 50,000 job openings are expected in nurseries and gardens across Australia over the next five years. 

We offer a range of horticulture courses in specialisations including landscaping, production nursery, turf management, parks and gardens, and conservation and land management.
