To date (January 2016), there are five undergraduate programs at FSB. In addition, master of science and doctor of philosophy programs are also offered at FSB. All of these academic programs are supervised by three departments, namely the Department of Natural Resources Technology, the Department of Geosciences and the Department of Natural Resources and Sustainability.
