Support Our Lab
The UMN Organic Horticulture program conducts its work almost entirely through extramural funding. If you're as passionate about organic horticulture as we are and would like to support our research—or are a grower interested in a collaborative project—please contact Mary Rogers. Your support is greatly appreciated.
Join Our Lab
We welcome individuals who are interested in pursuing positions as M.S. or Ph.D. graduate students as well as post-doctoral fellow positions, junior scientists, and undergraduate research assistants, or through the undergraduate research opportunities program (UROP). We highly recommend contacting Dr. Rogers to discuss current opportunities available, and we invite you to join events and seminars offered through the Department of Horticultural Science. See our current lab members on our Personnel page.
Graduate Students
Acceptance to our lab as a graduate student is dependent upon available funds, and we require graduate students to have a source of funding, either through external funds or through a research assistant (RA) position with our lab. Interested individuals must apply to the Applied Plant Sciences (APS) graduate program through the University of Minnesota Graduate School. Information about the APS program, prerequisites, and application can be found on the APS website.
