Environmental information technologies such as Geographic Information Systems, Remote Sensing, Statistics, Databases, Programming, the Internet and their forest ecosystem- and environment-related application form the core of the subjects taught. The core modules are accompanied by selected topics in forest and ecological disciplines.
Students learn the relevant concepts and methods for survey, analysis, visualisation, and communication of environmental data, acquire practical skills in handling common software products particularly related to spatial data, achieve a critical understanding of the processes in forest ecosystems and of forest management and are able to apply information technologies creatively to describe problems and find solutions, develop methods for sampling environmental data and computer- and model-based assessments of the effects on forests and other ecosystems, and they learn how to co-operate in interdisciplinary work groups.
