2 Forestry Degree Programs in Canada

All students attending the Maritime College of Forest Technology are enrolled in the two-year Forest Technology Diploma program. The program focuses on developing a student’s proficiency in the use of various tools and technologies used in gathering data across forested environments, as well as developing knowledge of forestry dynamics, wildlife habitat, management, and current issues. As a forest technician, you will be doing fieldwork in ever-changing forested stands, and applying the skills you’ve learned to research, manage, and natural resource conservation tasks. Upon successful completion of the Forest Technology program, students receive a diploma in Forest Technology. Unlike traditional high schools and universities, students enrolling at MCFT all receive the same class schedule each semester.

Specialized workers in forest ecosystem management participate in the definition, management and resolution of various types of problems in order to contribute to the implementation of sustainable forest development.
