UBC Faculty of Forestry - Science Made Practical!

We live in one of the most natural resource-rich areas in the world; despite this, it can be difficult to bring the outdoors into the classroom.  If you would like to introduce practical science applications to your students, invite UBC Forestry to your school.  Young, enthusiastic alumni conduct presentations  that include topics in ecology, wildlife biology, fire management, entomology (the Mountain Pine Beetle infestation),  and wood science, as well as different career paths related to environmental science,  and information on the various programs UBC Forestry offers.  

Please contact the Student Services Department at 604-822-1834  or forest.info@ubc.ca to book your presentation now!
