GEOG 4371 / 5371 Forest Geography

Are you interested in forest ecology and in getting hands-on field experience for a future career in the environment? Have you ever wondered how trees grow so large and live so long? Are you curious about how disturbances such as bark beetles and fire impact our Colorado forests?

If you answered yes, then you should register for Forest Geography!

In Forest Geography, we combine a mixture of field trips, in-class labs, critical thinking, and lectures to give you a strong foundation in forest ecology.  When possible, we try to hold class outside because it is easier to learn about trees when you can see and touch them!
