Plant Biology in University of South Wales

Plant Biology is the scientific study of plants, fungi and algae. Plants are vital for supporting and maintaining the atmospheric and environmental conditions required for all life on Earth. They are also the mainstay of human and animal diets, while also providing pharmaceuticals, timber, paper and clothing. Plants are being exploited as sources of renewable energy and biofuels, and make an important contribution to measures aimed at reducing the effects of climate change. A key to the further development of plants for practical or economic use is an improved understanding of metabolic and developmental processes and their interactions with environmental factors.

Plant Biology graduates have obtained positions as:

• Plant and environmental scientists
• Pollution biologists
• Molecular geneticists and cell biologists
• Agronomists, horticulturalists, foresters, park rangers
• Environmental consultants
