About the degree programme
Wood is a material that fascinates people – it is warm, natural, and its unmistakeable form sits comfortably in the palm of our hands. There are many good reasons for studying wood technology. Wood is easy to work with, offers untapped technical potential for modern, innovative products and as a native renewable raw material it helps us conserve the world’s finite resources.
