<p>What would one major in to become a botanist? Also what are some ideal colleges for botany?</p>
<p>Botany is generally a specialization under agriculture or biology, so in many cases it’s not its own major. For good schools, in California, there is UCR, UCD, CPP and Slo</p>
<p>I would recommend going with a BS or BA in Biology while taking as many plant biology and ecology classes as you can. After that, you’d go to grad school and become more and more specialized from there.</p>
