Longwood Graduate Program
Longwood Graduate Program at the University of Delaware
The Longwood Graduate Program, established in 1967, prepares students through the University of Delaware for a leadership career in public horticulture.
The Program teaches Fellows to be leaders through a variety of activities and coursework. Issues such as planning, teamwork, human resource management, basic finances/economics and museum studies are covered through internships, seminars, meetings and graduate coursework.
