1. Knowledge and understanding.
To develop during the lessons the knowledge on the characteristics of the main Mediterranean forest tree cropping systems. Ability to understand the evolving dynamics of forest and agro-forestry systems in relation to the objectives of a sustainable management.
2. Applying knowledge and understanding.
Ability to apply the knowledge and understanding in order to define criteria and modalities for the management of forest plantations and agro-forestry systems. To be able to apply methodologies for analysis and planning forest tree cropping systems on a territorial scale. Describe and provide scientific and application topics related to the management of forest plantation.
3. Making judgement.
Being able to develop interdisciplinary connection skills and critical discussion of course content. Develop critical interpretation skills and discussion of experimental results in the forest tree cropping sector similar to those discussed during lessons.
4. Communication skills.
Ability to communicate with clarity and conviction the knowledge acquired during the course or through the analysis of scientific articles or other publications in the forest tree cropping sector. These skills will be developed through the active involvement of students in class discussions or during practice sessions on different agro-forestry issues
5. Learning skills
Condition for successful learning skills is to develop the ability to re-organise and synthesize in autonomy the interdisciplinary knowledge on forest science to be applied to the forest tree cropping in the Mediterranean environment.
