Undergraduate Forestry program re-accredited
The Department of Natural Resource Conservation’s undergraduate program in Forest Ecology and Conservation was recently re-accredited by the national Society of American Foresters.
The re-accreditation process involved a three-day visit by a review team in April and a review of the self-evaluation report prepared by the Forestry faculty.
The program has been accredited by SAF since 1950, and is reviewed for re-accreditation on a 10-year basis. The undergraduate Forestry program is one of only three accredited by the SAF in New England (along with New Hampshire and Maine), and leads to a degree required for professional forestry licensure in many states.
