UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON 

 College of Forestry 



The College of Forestry at the University of Washington at 

 Seattle was established in 1907 and now offers a four-year under- 

 graduate course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in 

 Forestry, and graduate work for the degrees of Master of Forestry or 

 Master of Science in Forestry. The present faculty consists of four 

 full-time instructors of professorial rank and one special lecturer from 

 the United States Forest Service. The enrolment is 153. 



The curriculum of the College of Forestry is directed to provide 

 a broad general forestry training during the first two years, and an 

 opportunity for specialization during the last two years of under- 

 graduate work. Thorough specialization is offered in particular in 

 forest service and state work, logging engineering, forest products and 

 the lumber business. Special work along other lines is arranged. 



For advanced work the equipment of the College offers opportunity 

 for research in dendrology, sylviculture, management, wood tech- 

 nology, timber physics, wood preservation, advanced forest products 

 and lumbering. 



Ground has been broken for a new building for the College the 

 gift of Mrs. Alfred H. Anderson costing about $250,000. The new 

 building will be used for the instruction work and the present quarters 

 for research and experimentation. On the University campus the 

 school has forty acres of forest land for field work, and there are 

 forest stands within walking distance of the campus. The University 

 owns several large tracts in various parts of the State, using them for 

 research work, and the National Forests and wood-using and lumber- 

 ing industries near Seattle offer opportunity for field work. Much of 

 the instruction is given in the field and summer work in connection 

 with forest activities is urged by the College.
