FES

Department of Forest Ecosystems + Society (FES)

The College of Forestry’s Forest Ecosystems and Society department explores how forests shape — and are shaped by — people, policy and the environment. Teaching and research span ecology, conservation, recreation, restoration and environmental policy. Students learn through participating in research and field experience in Oregon and around the world, preparing them to lead across disciplines, inform decisions and create sustainable solutions for forests, people and the planet.
