The Forest Products Business option provides students with knowledge and skills to qualify for well-paying positions in the business side of forest products, production management, marketing and distribution, and technical and support services. Many students have multiple employment offers prior to graduating. Employment opportunities in Forest Products Business Management are outstanding.
Faculty members take a personal interest in each student's curriculum and courses.
They provide guidance and wisdom to assist students in achieving their academic and professional goals. We challenge our students to learn and give them the knowledge and training to become successful professionals in this rewarding career. Course work combines studies in the technical side of forest products, which includes such areas as wood products processing, wood drying and preservation, plywood and particle board, with business studies in such areas as management, economics, marketing, and finance. To enhance this training, we encourage students to participate in team projects and hands-on learning through field trips and labs.
