The educational preparation for professionals in forest resources is
necessarily diversified and demanding. The quality of our physical
environment and, ultimately, the quality of human life, rests to a great
extent in the hands of forest resources personnel. The graduate in forest
resources must be capable of making sound natural resources policy
decisions which contribute heavily to social and economic well-being.
The
curriculum prepares students to transfer to the University of Georgia as
juniors. Although courses satisfactorily completed in meeting the core
curriculum at Abraham Baldwin are accepted in transfer to the University
of Georgia, completion of the prescribed pre-forest resources curriculum
is required for admission to the professional program of the School of
Forest Resources at the University of Georgia. If the student plans to
transfer to a senior college other than the University of Georgia, he/she
should inform the faculty advisor of such intentions. Students completing
this curriculum will receive the Associate of Science degree.
