Roseburg Forest Products makes first visit to Clemson
December 5, 2017
Clemson welcomed Oregon-based forest product company, Roseburg to Clemson this month to tour the campus and attend the Clemson vs. Citadel football game. Roseburg Forest Products is expanding its operations with construction of a new engineered wood products plant in South Carolina. Executives from Roseburg, a leader in the forestry industry, spent their visit learning about how programs at Clemson help bridge the gap among education, workforce development and industry trends. These programs included the Wood Utilization + Design Institute, the Community Research + Design Center, and the Construction Science and Management program.
Roseburg spent time learning more about the capabilities of the Structural Engineering Research Lab, the Ag Mechanization Labs, and the Clemson Experimental Forest. On Saturday, Roseburg attendees participated in the CAFLS Tailgate, and watched Clemson beat the Citadel.
