The Diploma program uniquely combines theory and technique with the practice of horticulture. Students learn how to use the tools and technologies that are an everyday part of industry practice. The program also provides students with a foundation in horticulture science.

The Diploma in Horticulture Technology can be completed without specialization or by choosing one of three specializations:
All students must undertake a minimum 455 hours of 'Work Experience', usually completed between first and second year. This provides opportunity for students to apply their new skills and identify where their careers may lie after graduating.
