It is also the responsibility of the Greenhouse Manager to oversee the physical facilities of the Greenhouse and its ancillary rooms, communicating as necessary with Facilities Management to ensure regular maintenance and prompt repairs. Finally, the Greenhouse Manager is expected to assist laboratories and student research in a fraction of the Departments courses that focus on plant biology and utilize the greenhouse and its associated growth facilities.
