Forest Science at Penn State

Tiffany, Chance, and Robbie all started at the Mont Alto campus of Penn State in the two-year Forest Technology program. They’ve decided to pursue four-year degrees in Forest Science in the School of Forest Resources at University Park.  

Mont Alto has been educating foresters for more than 100 years as well as students in many other academic programs, including the agricultural sciences. Many students who start at the campus of 1,300 move on to Penn State University Park to finish their degrees.

These three students are in their first semester at University Park when I caught up to them in the new Forestry Building and they seemed to be having a great time. The Forestry Building is new and has excellent facilities for research and teaching. It’s a great place to be.
