College For Medical Marijuana?

I was wondering if there are colleges or classes that deal with things related to mj. My friend says I should look into Horticulture but im not sure what the best way to get in is. I want to get a degree and then my medical license so I can work with mj but im not sure what I have to do to get a legal job with medical mj.
If anyone knows what the best way to get a job at a dispensary is let me know I might be taking some classes next year and I really want to get a job after im done but im not sure the best way to get the job is.

You don't need a degree to grow or sell pot, legally or illegally.

But would it not be best to have one? I realy want to have a good record from a real school so I can be as proficainal as possible. Like what should I do if I want to work in the medical industry?

First step, don't start your sentences with "like" and get in the habit of using spell check... 
I don't see the point, but if I had to pick I would guess a BS in botany or horticulture with an MBA on top would be looked at favorably. But that amount of time with real experience in the industry would probably be more useful.
It depends more on what you want to actually do, not the industry. You can study accounting and be an accountant in the industry, you can study electrical engineering and work on automation and controls. You should think more about what you want to do on a day by day basis than what industry you want to be in.

medical marijuana sells itself(basically). if you are looking forward to getting in the business, a business degree might be more important.

Anybody can grow pot. If you have to have a degree to do it you will never survive in the industry. Do yourself a favor and get a real degree that will be profitable or don't go to school at all. Want to learn to grow pot....grow some pot then!

Visit the Growery for the basics on growing techniques, and get the Cannabis Grower's Bible by Greg Green. If planning to do a legit business truly for medical application, you may want to take some small business management classes, and a few classes in nursing related topics..

That was my first weed book. Got that from barnes and noble when I was like 12. Man did I get hooked. I moved out to CO and found my home at the time the day legalization was signed into law. Within 2 weeks I was working at a mmc and got my badge and oh how amazing it was. But sadly I am no longer there =( I did however get to live one of my greatest dreams. Wow. Sorry about that lol. But that book is damn good! Weed is easy to grow. Amazing weed can be easy to grow. The BEST weed takes experience and in my opinion love for the plant to grow. I met a few people at interviews on the east coast who went to one of those weed colleges out west. I really felt bad for them. They grew really shitty weed. I don't know what they teach but it was beat as shit.

HORTICULTURE! STUDY IT! Botany is very important too. I am studying horticulture at college and growing on my free time. I also conduct a lot of independent research with psychoactive plants and horticulture. I have learned so much I am currently working on some regenerative grow guides....

Maybe some type of chemistry course, that would give you a better understanding of exactly what chemical compounds are involved? I'd also vote for some type of law course, that discusses some of the legal issues, and how to minimize risk.
