US6543001 - Bachelor of Bioresource Technology with Honours

  • OVERVIEW

    This programme is designed to prepare the students with a strong background in bioresource (wood/non-wood), paper, and coatings science and technology. Besides, the students are exposed to knowledge in basic coatings technology, basic wood science and technology, pulp production and papermaking, paper recycling, wood-based panel technology, lignocellulosic composite, and etc. Apart from theory courses, students will also undergo practical course with the aim of obtaining practical skills and correlating it with the theory. The knowledge acquired will prepare the students for their future career in industries related to wood, furniture, panel, pulp, papermaking, paint,
    adhesives, resins, coatings, and packaging.
