Master’s degree
Wood Tech­no­logy

The public more and more recognises the importance of the material wood as an important resource for the future. This means that the study courses around wood in Rosenheim are a future-proof decision. To further my personal developments after the wood technology Bachelor I started the Masters degree. In addition to the modules on Management, personality, or technical topics I particularly liked the electives as you could set specific priorities, for example, in digitalisation, bioeconomy, or wood construction.
