Overview

Community Forestry and Arboriculture from University of Georgia includes groups of trees and forest stands growing in urban, suburban, and community landscapes, such as alongside parking lots and streets; in parks, yards, and urban canyons; and buildings and utility lines. Make cities green with trees!

Quick Facts:

This curriculum provides a combination of knowledge and skills in biological and ecological sciences, natural resource management, and social sciences needed to address complex natural resource challenges of greening urban communities.
As the eighth most populated state in the country—and the 10th fastest growing—Georgia is a prime example of the need for community foresters and arborists. Graduates are in high demand to work for municipalities, private and non-profit organizations, and utility companies to provide tree health care, risk and storm management, community greenspace, wellness, and resource sustainability.
