Ringkasan program

This program provides the renewable resource base for essential forest products, forage, and wildlife habitat. Forests stabilize stream flow, reducing soil erosion, floods, and avalanches, and are important in the regulation of air temperature in urban and rural settings. Forests also play a critical role in maintaining a proper carbon dioxide balance in the earth’s atmosphere and are valued for their aesthetic enrichment of their lives and for the widespread opportunities for outdoor recreation they provide. Forestry is the science and art of managing the natural resources that occur on and in association with forested lands in both the urban and rural landscape. These resources include trees, other plants, animals, soil, minerals, and climate and related air and water. The practice of forestry means management for specific objectives, whether timber production, recreational opportunities, wildlife habitat, forage, water regulation, preservation for scientific studies and special uses, or combinations of these uses. The forest product industry is in need of people who understand the business of wood products. Professionals in forest products are well paid and are in high demand. Students who elect this concentration will find employment in manufacturing, marketing, management, technical service and research. Employment in this area requires high-level skills in management and marketing, a broad technical background in processing operations, and a fundamental understanding of wood properties. This concentration is multi - disciplinary and offers knowledge of fundamental wood science and technology including the biological, chemical, physical, and mechanical properties of wood, and processing operations including wood gluing, wood preservation, and wood modification. Study of manufacturing processes and engineered wood composites prepares graduates to become leaders in the forest products industries.
