The Horticultural Sciences Department at the University of Guilan is a team of faculty, staff, and students (Bachelor, Master of sciences and Doctorate) dedicated to improving fruit, ornamental plants, medicinal plants and vegetable production, physiology and breeding for the benefit of farmers and consumers. Guilan's climatic diversity provides opportunities for research with sub-tropical crops. We conduct research in plant breeding & physiology, fruit & vegetable production, postharvest physiology, biochemistry, and other disciplines. We offer high-quality education and training for undergraduate and graduate students to equip them with the skills needed to be successful in satisfying, high-paying careers.
