Forest Engineering

Forestry Engineering (BW) is an interdisciplinary of Forestry Science and Engineering that is applied in bioprocess and biosystem-based engineering, in order to preserve the forest, manipulating forest to achieve the sustainable benefit, and construct new forests.

A forest engineer is a type of civil engineer and needs a solid foundation in civil, mechanical and forest engineering to work in industries such as forestry. Forest engineers plan and design various projects that affect forests, including forestry management, the clearing of logs from timberland and the construction of roads and other structures that allow access for forestry projects. These engineers also do surveying, manage projects and, in some cases, deal with the public. They also may work as consultants giving advice during construction.
