Hoping to fill positions in marijuana testing labs, Northern Michigan University is offering a medicinal plant chemistry program — effectively, a major in marijuana. It’s the first degree of its kind at a four-year undergraduate college, CBS Detroit reports.

Students will take classes in chemistry, plant biology, and business entrepreneurship, and complete a capstone research project involving “experimental horticulture” and “instrumental analysis of natural products,” according to the Northern Michigan University website.
