ESPM’s Master of Forestry degree is the only “M.F.” program in California and the only graduate degree program in California that offers qualifying credit for meeting education/experience requirements for licensing as a Registered Professional Forester in California. The M.F. degree gives those persons with a Bachelor of Science in Forestry additional experience for licensing as well as a foundation in the essentials of professional forest management. For more information on licensing, consult the California Department of Forestry & Fire Protection. The M.F. degree is also an option for persons with related, but non-forestry, backgrounds to enter the forestry profession. Recent M.F. students have had backgrounds in urban forestry, fire science, forest policy, or liberal arts backgrounds. Students with non-forestry background generally take longer to complete degree requirements.
