The EEB Greenhouse facilities are heavily used at both the undergraduate and graduate levels at the University of Connecticut.
Thousands of students each semester visit the greenhouses through Introductory Biology programs, particularly
Foundations of Biology,
Principles of Biology and
Introduction to Botany.
A number of EEB courses feature both visits to the greenhouses as well a regular succession of plants delivered to teaching
laboratories over the course of a semester. A few courses such as Systematic Botany
and Developmental Plant Morphology can utilize in
excess of 500 specimens per semester.
Many courses beyond Biology also utilize the resources of the EEB Greenhouse including the Plant Science department, Fine Arts department
and Anthropology.
