Technical University in Zvolen

The Technical University in Zvolen traces its origins to the Mining Academy in Banská Štiavnica, established in 1762, where forestry disciplines began to be taught in 1770. This tradition places the university among the earliest institutions associated with forestry education in the world. 
The university was officially established in 1952 as the University of Forestry and Wood Sciences and Technology in Zvolen, before becoming the Technical University in Zvolen in 1992, reflecting its expansion beyond its original forestry and wood-science focus.
The university is located in Zvolen, a small city in central Slovakia situated at the confluence of the Hron and Slatina rivers. Known for its medieval castle and historic architecture, Zvolen has a long association with forestry and wood industries, reflected in attractions such as the Forestry and Timber Museum. 
It comprises four faculties: forestry, wood sciences and technology, ecology and environmental sciences, and technology, alongside various university study programmes. It currently offers a range of bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral programmes, available in both full-time and part-time formats. Academic offerings range from forestry, wood sciences and environmental studies to manufacturing technology, industrial engineering, safety and security, economics, management and design. 
The Faculty of Forestry and the Faculty of Wood Sciences and Technology are particularly notable, with both being among the only faculties of their respective kind in Slovakia.
The university’s specialist facilities provide students with opportunities to connect academic study with practical experience. The Borová Hora Arboretum, established in 1965, supports research and the conservation of Slovakia’s tree genetic resources, while the University Forest Enterprise provides a dedicated setting for practical teaching, and forest management.
