However, the forestry departments have lost their names or changed their name to Forest Science, Natural Resources, Bio-Environment, and so forth. This was done because the new departments have been trying to reform and reorganize themselves to obtain a more efficient curriculum. They have been also pushed by some problems trending at the times, social issues, the forestry business cycles, natural environment consciousness, and also the changing needs of the students. This research focuses on the silviculture training at a practice forest belonging to the Tokyo University of Agriculture (TUA). Silviculture training is a compulsory subject for sophomore students in the Forest Science Department of TUA. This study reports the aim, contents, number of students attending on training, as well as the teaching staff structure. In addition, we surveyed the students who attended the training in 2014 and 2015 and obtained input through a questionnaire directed towards the students. We also discuss the problems and prospects pertaining to silviculture training within a college education system.}, pages = {21--24}, title = {Prospect and subjects of silviculture training at practice forest of Tokyo University of Agriculture (TUA)}, volume = {64}, year = {2016} }
