Program Summary

Forestry and wildlife management is an interdisciplinary course that focuses on the sustainable use, conservation, and restoration of forest ecosystems and the wildlife species that inhabit them. It combines principles of biology, ecology, environmental science, and resource management to train students in the responsible stewardship of natural resources. The course covers topics such as forest ecology, silviculture, biodiversity conservation, habitat analysis, wildlife population dynamics, environmental policy, and the socio-economic aspects of natural resource use. Students learn about the balance between human needs and environmental protection, gaining skills in fieldwork, data analysis, and the application of scientific methods to real-world conservation challenges. Through practical experiences and theoretical knowledge, the course prepares individuals to contribute to the management of forests and wildlife in ways that support ecological integrity, economic viability, and social well-being.
