Sheridan College Ag. students study in the new multi-million dollar Watt Regional Ag. Center and enjoy small class sizes with competent, caring instructors. This is important to many students from smaller rural schools. We are proud of the fact that our transfer students consistently exhibit higher GPA’s than their peers who began their college careers elsewhere. If a quality education in a state of the art facility at an affordable price is what you are seeking, please contact any of the Sheridan College Ag. faculty for more information.

The results of trained horticulturists are all around us every day. Where an individual chooses to focus their energy determines which area of the horticultural field they will eventually work in. Horticulturalists are responsible for the parks we relax in, the golf and sports turfs we play on and the landscapes we enjoy. Much more than just "plant science", horticultural students study the relationships between plants, soils, insects, animals and man. Unlike many agricultural fields that dictate living and working in a rural area, Hort. majors have the option of working literally anywhere in all of the fifty states. Presently, there are more job openings for Hort. majors than there are graduates.
