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.

Rosenheim’s practical course in wood technology is as unique as the material itself. For nearly 100 years now, Rosenheim’s wood technology specialists have been climbing the ladder of success and enjoy a broad range of career opportunities.

[...] This enables me to make a small contribution towards the future resource-efficient and sustainable use of our forests, and thus also to climate protection.
