F&ES Forest-Related Education

At the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies, education takes place in many forms and places, including at the School Forests, field trips throughout the U.S. and world, and virtually through online courses and certificate programs. Faculty, lecturers, and staff guide these educational experiences, while students and alumni provide input and participate in the classroom, online, and in the field.

Foresters, landowners, and practitioners apply their skills in the forests of the Philippines during the field course of ELTI’s first offering of the first Tropical Forest Landscapes certificate program.
