Välkommen till Växtskydd, grundkurs!
Ett preliminärt schema finns här på kurshemsidan. Litteraturlistan finns numera i Ladok. Båda, samt en komplett version av Växtskyddets grunder, är även tillgängliga i Canvas. Höstens kurs genomförs huvudsakligen på campus, med några få Zoom-träffar – om coronaläget inte kräver ändring. Notera att första dagen på kursen, 29 augusti, sker via Zoom för att undvika trängsel när alla nya programstudenter kommer till campus.
Vänlig hälsning, Salla Marttila
