The Council on Forest Engineering (COFE) is an international professional organization that fosters the development of forest engineering in industry, government, and in university teaching, research, and extension programs to promote the best methods of managing and operating forests; to serve the forestry profession on matters of policy in the area of forest engineering; and to disseminate technical information on forest engineering subjects.
The 2015 COFE Annual Meeting will be held in Lexington, Kentucky July 19-22, 2015. We will be hosted by Marco Contreras and the University of Kentucky. The theme of the meeting will be "Engineering solutions for non-industrial private forest operations."
Mark your calendars now and look for more information in the coming months on this excellent opportunity to visit the "Bluegrass State".
The Western Regional Council on Forest Engineering held a one-day seminar on the theme, “Improving Forest Harvesting Operations,” in Eugene, Oregon, on January 16, 2014. The seminar was attended by 250 people. Chet Miller and Erik Neilson, who attend Oregon State University, were each awarded a $1,000 Jerry Sedlak Memorial Scholarship.
