There is a strong need for it because the cannabis industry is desperate for qualified personnel, professor Anja Geitmann says.

McGill鈥檚 Diploma in Commercial Cannabis program launches in June and it鈥檚 meant to train biologists to cultivate cannabis, design strains, protect them against contaminants and understand the legal framework of Canada鈥檚 burgeoning weed industry.

While Guelph University has a cannabis cultivation course and there are college-level programs geared toward the industry, McGill is the first among U15 Canadian Research Universities to go all-in on weed.

The program comes as Canada鈥檚 biggest cannabis growers are turning to universities across the country for help. They need to staff their labs and greenhouses with plant biologists and a small army of experts to keep the industry rolling.

At McGill, professor Anja Geitmann says she鈥檚 been hounded by recruiters looking for qualified personnel for the past year.
