The Forestry Engineering course at the Quevedo State Technical University will be nationally accredited by 2025, recognised for its contribution to the sustainable management of forest resources and biodiversity, to scientific and technical knowledge and to the strengthening of the ancestral knowledge of the Ecuadorian community.
The mission of the Forestry Engineering course at the Quevedo State Technical University is to train competent professionals at a scientific-technical level, with a humanistic approach, who improve the quality of life of the Ecuadorian community through the generation, application, systematisation and dissemination of knowledge related to the production and sustainable management of forest resources and biodiversity, articulated to the regional and national forestry reality.
Future foresters will seek solutions to the serious problems currently affecting the country's forestry sector, based on the following competences:
The forestry engineer will be able to work in private companies, public entities, in projects of international bodies and non-governmental organisations, in the areas of planning, execution and monitoring of forestry and industrial projects and operations linked to the management and sustainable use of forest resources; forest inventories and censuses; wood technology and industries; research projects; forest valuation and business management.
Within a period of less than 72 hours after the absence, the student must justify the absence through their academic management system account (SGA) where they must attach a PDF of the medical certificate validated by the UBU (University Welfare Unit) in the event that the absence was due to illness; or attach the death certificate of the family member in the case of domestic calamity.
Access to a third registration is limited to only three possibilities:
In the case of a and b, the student must attach the appropriate medical support that demonstrates that the student has been through these situations, and this documentation must also be validated by the UBU.
In general, the SGA blocks students who have stopped studying the last academic period, so the student must request by means of a signed request in pdf to the career mail the unblocking of their SGA account to be able to access the new enrolment period.
When a change of HEI (Higher Education Institution) is made, it is not possible to validate all the learning units approved in the HEI of origin, so as the student approves the prerequisites of the current curriculum, he/she can request through the Career Coordination Office that the learning units that were not validated at the time of the transfer of HEI be validated by validation. For this analysis, it must be considered that the subject to be validated must have 80% similarity in its minimum learning contents, as well as in the number of credits and hours.
Consideration should be given to whether there is an inter-institutional agreement between the two HEIs and if so, the same requirements apply.
In order to access financial aid, the application period must be in force in the Academic Management System (SGA), where each student can select the type of financial aid of interest and upload the requested documents if they meet the requirements. Approximately on 1 August each year, enrolled students receive notifications through the SGA through which those who meet the established requirements can apply. The types of financial aid available are:
The deadlines are published in the call for applications (one per year). Additionally, the student must have been a regular student during the financial aid validation period, which corresponds to the academic year prior to the call for applications. It is suggested that you review the requirements for each type of grant and apply for the one in which you think you have the best chance of being a beneficiary.
