Forest Information Technology

2025/26, second cycle (post bachelor's degree), full-time studies

The studies are conducted in English. The studies start from winter semester, last for 4 semesters (2 years) and end with a vocational Master’s degree.

The Forest Information Technology (FIT) is a Master’s study programme implemented in cooperation between the Eberswalde University for Sustainable Development, and the Warsaw University of Life Sciences.

Digital, smart, and innovative technologies have found their way into forestry and natural resource management, and are there to stay. Therefore, FIT focuses on fundamental and applied knowledge of environmental information technologies and Green Information Technologies (Green IT) applications in the global forestry context.
Graduates are experts in the application of modern information technologies in the forest and environmental sector and can solve problems in silvicultural practice as well as spatial information and data management. The certificates of degree are issued by the two enrolling partner universities.

Both diplomas enable entering various European and international job markets with a focus digital technologies or sustainable natural resource management and empirical ecological research using digital data and forest and environmental management, ecological consultancy and others. Master certificates issued by the two universities are an accepted prerequisite for continuing your studies as a PhD student or entering any other doctoral degree programme.

By the end of the first semester, students are required to complete health and safety training, library training and training on discrimination and its prevention. All training is provided using distance learning techniques, on a platform: https://szkolenia.sggw.edu.pl
