Mission of the Faculty
Our mission is to provide modern interdisciplinary education based on sound scientific research, close collaboration with practitioners and wide international cooperation in order to prepare professionals working first of all for forestry, environment and nature protection.
Mission of the specialization (major)
International Master Study Programme Forest Information Technology (FIT) is a joint initiative of the Faculty of Forestry at Warsaw University of Life Sciences-SGGW (WULS-SGGW) in Warsaw, Poland, and the Faculty of Forest and Environment of the University of Sustainable Development (USDE) in Eberswalde, Germany. This is a double-degree, joint curriculum programme taught in English that enables its participants to achieve the Master of Science degree from both partner universities. FIT is an interdisciplinary education offer with its main focus on environmental information technologies (IT), forest ecosystem research, forest management and landscape research.
Detailed programme of studies
a) First year: First semester is placed at the USDE and is characterized by impartation of basic knowledge of environmental information technologies. Second semester takes place at the WULS-SGGW and focuses on the impartation of continuative knowledge of environmental information technologies including specific silvicultural contents.
b) Second year: During the third semester an independent research project is planned at WULS-SGGW, USDE or other partner institution in Germany, Poland or abroad, accompanied with a range of elective courses. Fourth semester is devoted mostly to Master thesis preparation.
Educational outcomes
Students will be enabled to detect relevant IT application areas and to plan and to technologically promote corresponding innovation processes. Students learn to solve complex problems based on a deepened and extended understanding of structures, processes and relationships within ecosystems, landscapes as well as within the sphere of forestry and based on a broad spectrum of scientific methods and tools for the collection, analysis, storage, visualization and communication of environmental data.
