Sustainable Forestry Program, Southern Cross University

The Sustainable Forestry Program at Southern Cross University plays a crucial role in forestry education in Australia for the delivery of innovative teaching and learning courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. It operates within the School of Environmental Science and Management.

Forestry is also a major field of research strength within the university and is highly regarded internationally. Research is focused in the areas of:

• production and utilization of native and planted forests (silviculture, wood technology, growth modelling and biofuels from residues).
• domestication (cultivation and breeding).
• biodiversity and conservation.
• social research (community engagement and socio-economics).
• community education and development.
