Forest Management (with integrated foundation year)
BSc · The University of Cumbria · 5 years
About this course
Forest management is the science and practice of sustainably maintaining, restoring, and developing woodland ecosystems for environmental, economic, and social benefit. Forests are among the planet's most important ecosystems: they regulate water cycles, sequester carbon, support extraordinary biodiversity, and provide livelihoods for communities across the world. As climate change and land-use pressures intensify, the expertise needed to manage forests wisely has never been more important. This five-year full-time programme at the University of Cumbria, taught at the National School of Forestry in Ambleside, begins with an integrated foundation year designed to build your academic skills and core knowledge before you progress into the degree proper. You will develop a thorough understanding of forest ecology, woodland management techniques, and the social, economic, and policy contexts
