The Master's program in Forestry Engineering is structured to meet current national and international forestry requirements and sectoral expectations. The program aims to provide fundamental and advanced knowledge in forestry science and practices.
The Forestry Engineering Master's Program places special emphasis on developing students' communication skills, problem-solving competencies, and technical equipment. In this context, the program aims to train expert engineers who can analyze the causes of problems encountered in the field of forestry, especially in the protection, planning, and management of forest resources and non-timber forest products, using scientific methods and produce sustainable solutions to these problems.
Throughout the program, students gain skills in identifying, analyzing, and solving forestry problems by developing interdisciplinary approaches through individual and group work; and they achieve the competencies to work in academia, the public sector, and the private sector.
