What is forestry? Forestry is the art and science of managing forest resources. If you have a love for the woods, as well as an interest in the sustainable management of forests, you will find camaraderie in the forestry program of the School of Forest Resources and Environmental Science at Michigan Tech. What will I learn? Find your niche with a program that emphasizes professional development, field skills, teamwork, and leadership. You will build strong working relationships with your professors and peers while gaining a diverse, hands-on technical background in forestry by developing management plans and options for forested landscapes and implementing them to meet society’s needs while maintaining ecosystem integrity; studying the ecosystem of the Keweenaw Peninsula, bordered by Lake Superior and blanketed with forest and wetlands; and working your skills and knowledge to find summer jobs after only your first year of classes.
