Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Mastering theoretical and practical skills in the academic discipline "Dendrology". 2. Knowledge of the basics of soil science, selection and genetics of woody plants, biometrics within the framework of the programmatic issues of the disciplines taught during the previous period. 3. The ability to apply in scientific and applied activities methods related to the taxonomy of woody plants of various systematic and ecological groups. 4. Possession of elementary skills in making herbarium specimens of leafy shoots of woody plants, as well as using keys to plant identifiers.
Course content
Educational practice is designed to deepen and consolidate the theoretical knowledge gained by students during the study of the discipline "Dendrology". In particular, to acquaint students with the species composition of woody plants used for landscaping of urban landscapes and their biological and ecological properties, which determine the conditions of their suitability for cultivation within the urban environment. The program also provides students with mastery of methods for determining certain species of woody plants with the involvement of herbarium material, determinants of woody plants and catalogs of leading companies engaged in the sale of decorative planting material.
