Major: Biology (This Major's Salary over time)
Davis has an amazing amount of coursework in plant biology and ecology. It has the advantage of multiple professors and resources in a variety of related areas of study. TA positions are realitively easy to get in entry level classes. If you want to head straight into research without any coursework, this may not be the place for you.
