Aim

The Bachelor of Sustainable Environments has been designed to meet the needs of government, business and industry, to supply graduates with a broad knowledge of environmental sustainability and provide specialisations in one of four awards.

Content & Structure

Students are required to complete 108 units of study for the successful completion of the program. The program consists of a first year which is common to all awards. This lays a foundation to the following two years in which one of four awards may be further pursued. Students may elect to change awards at the end of year one. The awards are Geospatial Information Systems, Geographical and Earth Systems, Environmental Protection and Management, Biodiversity and Park Management.
