Education and outreach activities of the CRC for Forestry include training of staff and students, publication of science-based resource material, public communications activities and commercialisation initiatives. Our active education programme recruits and provides support for a large number of students researching a variety of topics – from sociology to forest genetics to engineering and systems modelling – and each student project makes a valuable contribution to the CRC’s overall research objectives.

The CRC for Forestry is also a partner in the new National Forestry Masters Programme. On 19 May the National Forestry Masters Program announced that it has a new convenor. Download the press release.
