The forestry program at Ohio State provides
a balanced, integrated program of teaching, research, and
service with specific strengths in forest biology, management,
and reclamation. The program's goal is to educate professional
forest managers who can think critically and integrate ecological
principles within sociopolitical frameworks. The forestry
curriculum:
- combines an intensive liberal arts core with
a comprehensive professional forestry major;
- integrates social, biological, and applied
sciences through interdisciplinary courses; and
- emphasizes private, nonindustrial forest
land management.
Research Interests
- Selection, evaluation, establishment
and management of woody vegetation for use in an anthropogenic
environment;
- Investigations into the effects of the environment on
plants in an urban situation; and,
- Development of interactive tools for the management of
urban vegetation.
