SUFONAMA<br />
Sustainable Forest and Nature Management<br />
Duration: 2 years<br />
Course description:<br />
SUFONAMA is an integrated two-year world-class Masters Course in Sustainable Forest and Nature<br />
Management. The Course provides a top-level programme that qualifies graduates to deal with the<br />
huge challenges in Europe's - as well as other temperate regions' - pursuit of an evermore sustainable<br />
management of her natural resources, namely, that management of forests and nature areas must be<br />
seen in an integrated landscape context. To obtain the SUFONAMA double degree and the Diploma<br />
Supplement, students have to acquire 120 ECTS credits by studying at two Consortium institutions,<br />
acquiring at least 60 ECTS credits at each.<br />
The Consortium consists of five institutions: (i) University of Copenhagen, Centre for Forest,<br />
Landscape and Planning, (ii) University of Wales, School of Agricultural and Forest Sciences, Bangor,<br />
Wales, UK, (iii) University of Göttingen, Faculty of Forest Sciences and Ecology, Göttingen, Germany,<br />
(iv) Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre, Alnarp,<br />
Sweden, and (v) University of Padua, Faculty of Agriculture, Padua, Italy. The SUFONAMA Course<br />
consists of a first year at one of three institutions (Bangor, Copenhagen, Göttingen) and a second year<br />
of specialisation at one of the other four institutions. Students are extensively exposed to<br />
reality/practice, that is, they are not only taught theory of forest, environmental and social sciences.<br />
Graduates are thus able to contribute to sustainable forest and nature management under the 'new'<br />
management paradigm. A full course description and the application procedure is found on<br />
