Welcome to the College of Forestry and Range Science (since 1942)
It is a privilege to welcome you to the official website of the College of Forestry and Range Science.
Our planet’s forests, rangelands, and wildland ecosystems are critical to ecological stability, economic sustainability, and human well-being. From combating land degradation and biodiversity loss to supporting pastoral communities, managing watersheds, and mitigating climate change, the management of terrestrial natural resources stands at the forefront of global environmental priorities.
The College of Forestry and Range Science is committed to addressing these vital issues through rigorous academic instruction, pioneering research, and dedicated extension services. We offer specialized academic programs designed to prepare future leaders, managers, and scientists with the field skills, technological tools, and scientific foundation necessary to sustainably manage complex forest and rangeland landscapes.
Our faculty members carry out impactful research in sustainable silviculture, range ecology and management, watershed conservation, wildlife habitat restoration, remote sensing, and natural resource economics. Through hands-on fieldwork, laboratory experience, and community partnerships, we bridge the gap between scientific theory and practical land management.
Whether you are a prospective student preparing for a career in environmental management, a researcher seeking collaboration, or a partner interested in sustainable ecosystem stewardship, I encourage you to explore our website to discover our academic programs, research initiatives, and community impact.
Thank you for visiting, and welcome to our academic community.
Sincerely,
