‘Forest Engineering’ is a discipline that combines engineering knowledge, with management, geospatial and geotechnical skills, and applies them to the broader forest landscape. It is not just about designing work to be done, but also ensuring we minimise the impact on the environment, keep people safe, and respect the needs of society. 

This website is designed to promote Forest Engineering knowledge by making a selection of learning materials readily available – it is for educational purpose only. Enjoy.
