FOREST ENGINEERING PROGRAM OUTPUTS
1. Has a knowledge on basic math, science, engineering, computer and information technology, be able to use these knowledge either for forestry practices or development of modern techniques and tools, which are required at engineering applications, as well as their selection and use.
2. Has the necessary knowledge to identify, define, formulate and solve complex engineering problems, as well as having the ability to select and apply appropriate analysis and modeling methods.
3. Having the ability to apply modern design methods to the the complex forest ecosystem and its processes under realistic constraints and conditions by designing, implementing and controlling them with a participatory approach to meet certain requirements (Realistic constraints and conditions include elements such as economy, environmental issues, sustainability, manufacturability, ethics, health, safety, social and political issues, depending on the nature of the design)
4. Has the knowledge of natural sciences and engineering and the ability to apply this knowledge in forest engineering. In this context, recognize the elements of forests and other related ecosystems, analyze the relationships between them, and can consciously intervene in any kind of forest resources and related natural resources in line with public welfare. Therefore; has the ability to design and conduct experiments, collect data, analyze and interpret results for examining forest engineering problems.
5. In addition to gaining the ability to work effectively in disciplinary and multidisciplinary teams; has the ability to use self-study and initiative, analytical thinking and effective communication skills, and has a competitive power in the field of environment and forestry in the national and international arena.
6. Has the necessary knowledge for the sustainable management of forest resources, which can reveal the socio-cultural, socio-economic, socio-political structure of forestry, create awareness and carry out planning, implementation and control with a participatory approach.
7. Has the knowledge and ability to establish new forests, to improve degraded forests, and to intervene in the maintenance and regeneration of existing forests, and to make interventions to protect the existence and quality of the forest ecosystem against biotic and abiotic threats.
8. Has the ability to comprehend national and international forestry policies, laws and obligations, to perceive the sectoral structuring of forestry at national and international scale, and to analyze and evaluate this structure.
9. In addition to having knowledge about ethical principles, awareness of professional and ethical responsibility and standards used in forest engineering applications, it has knowledge and sensitivity in the fields of occupational health and safety and business peace.
10. With the ability to predict the future of forest ecosystems, think multi-dimensionally, develop alternatives and make multi-criteria selection and interpretation among them, it has the ability to define forest and environmental problems in national and international areas, to produce solutions, to communicate with the society and to create social awareness.
11. In the light of the lifelong learning principle, has the ability to follow the current developments in ecological, political, economic and social dimensions related to forestry and to use this information for the benefit of national forestry by following the developments in science and technology.
