The core content of the course of study Forestry and Environment is the management of (forest) ecosystems and forest landscapes on a scientific basis. The course of study thus focuses on the interrelationships between “forest and humankind” in a variety of dimensions. The program integrates disciplines from the natural sciences, engineering, and social sciences. The curriculum deals with the conservation and the sustainable use of the Earth’s forests and forest landscapes. This often involves complex ecosystems humans are dependent on for their very survival: for their water, their air, and the relaxation they provide, for their effects on the global climate, their animals, and their plants, and last but not least for their wood – a renewable ecological raw material. The content and findings of research on forest ecosystems can serve as a model for every innovative strategy for managing natural resources.

An overview of all the subjects that can be taken in combination with subject Forestry and Environment by students who started their B.A. degree programme in the winter semester 2013/14 or later:

Meteorology and Climatology* | International Forestry* | Nature Conservation and Landscape Management* | Wood and Bioenergy* | Environmental Hydrology*

As part of the Bachelor of Arts degree programme, the major subjects can also be combined with one of the three minor subjects offered by the Freiburg University of Music - aural training, music physiology and music theory - instead of one of the above-mentioned minor subjects, each of which has a scope of 40 ECTS credits. In the case of such a combination, the relevant examination regulations of the Freiburg University of Music apply to the study of the minor subject offered by the Freiburg University of Music.

Disclaimer
The versions of statutes with relevance to teaching and learning provided on this page by the Department of Legal Affairs (in particular admission and selection regulations as well as subject and examination regulations) are primarily for information purposes. This means that all amendments subsequently agreed upon by the University Senate have been integrated into the respective text of the original statutes; in the case of the examination regulations for bachelor's and master's degree programmes, this generally relates to extracts of the respective examination regulations (framework examination regulations, subject-specific provisions, and appendices).
The greatest care has been taken in writing these versions. Nevertheless, it cannot be entirely ruled out that errors may have occurred. Consequently, it is solely the officially announced statutes and statute amendments that are legally binding, i.e. as published in the Amtlichen Bekanntmachungen der Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg im Breisgau [de] or, up to the year 2000, in the official gazette of the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts.
