Undergraduate professional study Wood technology
About:
At the end of the undergraduate studies, the student is issued a certificate that determines the completion of the studies and the acquisition of the title according to the study field: professional/professional bachelor's degree/bachelor's degree in wood technology.
The professional study of wood technology provides basic knowledge from a wide range of technical and natural sciences as well as professional knowledge and skills required by the modern development of wood industry companies. Wood is a challenging, diverse and renewable natural material that represents an important potential of the Croatian economy. The use of new technologies increases production efficiency and makes the wood industry profitable. Due to its raw material base, the Republic of Croatia has real opportunities to increase the production of wood products, all with the aim of increasing the sale and export of final wood products and reducing the import of final wood products.
Competencies Fundamentals of engineering (mathematics, physics, chemistry), fundamentals of knowledge of materials (anatomy of wood, use of wood, other materials), fundamentals of technological properties and processes (technological processes in wood processing and furniture production), computers and the application of computers in production (informatics, CAD , CAM, CAP, CIM, NU...), organization and economics (integration of knowledge for middle management in companies for wood processing and furniture production).
Qualifications A professional bachelor's degree in wood technology will be trained to manage production in all stages of processing and the technological process, to work in production preparation, production planning, product and production quality control. They will have special knowledge in the application of computers in designing, scheduling production, and introducing and programming complex processes with computer support. The jobs of a professional bachelor's degree in wood technology do not coincide with the jobs of a bachelor's and master's degree in wood technology.
Applicants to the professional study of wood technology will be allowed horizontal mobility within the field of biotechnical sciences and between European universities with which the University of Zagreb or the Faculty of Forestry and Wood Technology has signed a cooperation agreement.
Studij završava prikupljanjem 180 ECTS bodova odnosno polaganjem svih propisanih ispita, obavljenom stručnom praksom te izrađenim završnim radom u obliku individualnoga pisanog rada.
