The Undergraduate Certificate in Horticultural Therapy is a 12-credit hour online program in the Environmental Horticulture Department at the University of Florida and is open to both UF and non-degree students. Completion of the certificate will enable students to apply principles associated with the use of horticulture to increase human health and wellbeing. Students will explore the human dimensions of horticulture and its use as a vehicle for increased quality of life. They will gain knowledge in treatment assessments, plans, and methods, as well as activity analysis and adaptation and how they apply to special populations and varied settings. Funding and staff, volunteer, and program management will be examined, as will the use of plants, gardens, and greenhouses in therapeutic programming. This program prepares students to develop activities, treatment plans, and programs using plants to achieve therapeutic outcomes in diverse public and private settings. The curriculum is accredited by the American Horticultural Therapy Association.
