Seasonal Opportunities

“Applying skills I learned at UBC relating to tree and disease identification has helped prepare me for my tasks as a silviculture surveyor. Given that I work on Vancouver Island, I have already had the privilege of experiencing the challenging and beautiful terrain that defines coastal British Columbia. The opportunity to gain first hand experience of the operational side of forestry in BC through the co-op program has given me an understanding of the forestry industry that I would not have been able to receive if I did not get out of the classroom and into the field.”

– Nicholas Mantegna, Urban Forestry Co-op Student, UBC
