Лесное хозяйство (Бакалавр наук)

The University of Forestry attaches particular importance to its high practical relevance, which it ensures through the use of numerous lecturers, through its integrated practical semester and through the teaching area on site.

During the entire course, a large part of the courses take place in the form of excursions, practical exercises as well as project and group work. In addition to classic “practical subjects” such as silviculture, cutting planning and log sorting, the lecturers often try to establish a practical relevance in other lectures.

The 2500 hectare teaching area right in front of the front door offers ideal practice opportunities for this. In the first two semesters, the basics for the wide-ranging forestry degree are taught. In addition to the natural and social science, technical and methodological basics, great importance is attached to the acquisition of key qualifications.

Our students appreciate the pleasant atmosphere and the personal interaction. The training content of the courses is based on future fields relevant to the labor market. With almost 1200 students, the Rottenburg University of Applied Sciences is a small but future-oriented university with a clear core forestry profile.

In its courses of study, the university develops cross-sector solutions in the areas of forestry, timber management, nature and environmental protection, landscape planning, water management, sustainable regional management and renewable energies. The focus is on the material and energetic use of (forest) biomass, the use of the scarce resource water and international development cooperation.

The aim of all courses is to impart knowledge and skills for a responsible and sustainable use of natural resources. For this future-oriented educational offer, the HFR has received several awards from UNESCO and won the university competition "Profile and Cooperation - Excellence Strategies for Small and Medium-sized Universities" at the Stifterverband der Deutschen Wissenschaft.
