Master of Forestry (MF)

About

The Master of Forestry (MF) is a course-based degree program offered as part of a dual-degree partnership with other European and Canadian Universities. We offer two streams for the MF degree: TRANSFOR-M (Transatlantic Forestry Master) or Green Business. This partnership is a unique course-based educational experience, which provides MF students with the opportunity to explore Forestry both in Europe and Canada.

Admitted students register in the MF program at UBC for two years. Within that timeframe, one year is spent in Europe completing degree requirements at the chosen partner institution, and one year is completed at UBC-Vancouver completing MF degree requirements, resulting in the conferral of two separate Master's credentials.
