To answer these tasks, the Department of Forest Science is engaged in comprehensive education and research aiming at various cultivation and use of forest, as well as better preservation of nature and living environment.

At our department, we engage in forest and use of its products based on both of natural science and social science by fieldworks availing vast Research Forest, in addition to lectures and experiments inside the university. We consider about a harmonized way of forest and human society.
