Our students experience a rigorous, demanding, hands-on, professional education. We're one of the few colleges in the nation to offer forest engineering and wood science and technology at the undergraduate level. Our programs are fully accredited by the Society of American Foresters and the Society of Wood Science and Technology. The educational environment is warm and supportive. College of Forestry students are a friendly, close-knit group.
Professors teach their own classes and interact with students daily.
Each student is guided by his or her own faculty adviser. Significant advances in technology, genetics, economics, and landscape analysis techniques using satellite imagery systems are changing the way we manage our forests. Professionals working in forestry and natural resources today must not only analyze - they must integrate. They must deal not only with facts, but with values. They must not only understand, but act.
