The Faculty of Forestry provides 4-years BSc degree in “Forestry”, 3-years BSc degree in “Ecology and Environmental Protection”, 2-years MSc degree and also PhD programmes.
Undergraduate studies cover the field of Forestry in two types of educational programmes: full time learning (4 years) and long distance learning (4 years). The students are trained to become forest engineers with complex qualifications in land measurement and remote sensing, forest ecosystem management (e.g. dendrology, ecology, silviculture, entomology, game management etc.), wood harvesting technologies, and primary timber processing, ecological restoration and watershed management, as well as in forest economy and legislation. The two master programmes run by the faculty focus on “Biodiversity Conservation and Ecosystem management” and on “Management of Forestry Activities”. The emphasis of the first one is on forest conservation, while the latter is focused on providing appropriate management knowledge and skills necessary in forest harvesting and wood processing. Master degree students were involved up to now in three Erasmus projects regarding the innovation in forest sector.
