The brief

The threats to plant biosecurity have increased with the globalisation in trade and travel, which has resulted in increased volume and diversity of plants and plant products entering the UK.

This has resulted in much greater risk of the introduction and establishment of new plant pests and pathogens.

A recent example was Ash Dieback which is estimated will cost the British economy £15 billion. ​The course is offered part-time only and intended to provide students with a detailed understanding of basic plant pathology and entomology, and the application of this science to control current plant pests and pathogens, to reduce the introduction of invasive pests and pathogens and minimise their impact when introduced.
