Students will attain knowledge in other land resources such environmental science, surveying and landman, and will have the management knowledge and skills to be managers of all land resource entities. They will be effective in managing public policy of governmental and public entities with a multiple use prospective. Students are also provided experiences that duplicate real world applications as closely as possible.
The Forest Technology Program has been recognized by the Society of American Foresters (SAF) since 1971. In 2009, SAF began the transition from recognition to full accreditation of forest technology degree programs. The Forest Technology degree program is now accredited by the Society of American Foresters.
