The Environmental Science Programs are designed to study the nature of environmental problems and the methodology of their evaluation and management. Emphasis is placed on the development of relevant skills in environmental analysis modelling and planning.

The programs are primarily intended for students with a background in science or engineering; however, students with other degrees who have undertaken undergraduate level environmental courses and/or have professional experience in an environmental area may apply for entry.

The Graduate Certificate in Environmental Science is a specialist graduate program of half year full-time (or equivalent) study chosen from Faculty-wide environmental courses. Specialisation is achieved by undertaking study in one environmental stream of the program, although some flexibility in courses may be permitted at the discretion of the program authority.

Please contact the School of Safety Science for information.

Candidates are required to complete a program of study totalling 18 units of credit (UOC) where 6 UOC are a core course and the remaining 12 UOC include courses from the Master of Science and Technology Environmental Science elective streams.

Students are required to select up to 12 UOC of electives from specialist streams of courses as mentioned in the MscTech in Environmental Science program.

Please contact the School of Safety Science or the Faculty of Science for information.
