STEM Career: Arborist

Arborists are professionals who raise, maintain, and, when needed, remove trees. They may design park layouts, create a smaller landscape design with trees, and trim and shape trees. They can determine a tree's health and recommend removal if it could cause a safety issue. They can also recommend corrective interventions if needed for a tree's growth.

Tools of the Trade

Field guides, computers, climbing gear

Education Required

A bachelor's degree in arboriculture, horticulture, or environmental conservation is usually required, along with certification and licensure.
