The Department of Horticultural Bioscience is a field that studies vegetables, fruit trees, flowers, ornamental plants and medicinal crops essential for healthy eating, emotional well-being, and happy life. As applied science, new cultivation methods, post-harvest storage, breeding of new varieties, and identification of new pharmacological substances are studied using advanced equipment and biotechnology..
We are focusing on the development and production of horticultural plant resources based on plant physiology, biochemistry, molecular biology, genetic engineering, pathology, and environmental control cultivation technology. In addition, in connection with industrialization and urbanization, we are conducting professional education and research on horticultural activities such as horticultural therapy, flower design, and gardening that harmonize humans and nature.
