About this programme
In the first three years whilst completing the extended major, you will develop advanced skills in the use, manipulation, analysis and visualization of spatial data. This will be achieved through a hands-on approach using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) remote sensing technologies, field-based data collection and laboratory-based analysis. You will then complete a final year of postgraduate study in the Master of Environmental Science. The masters component of the course will focus on understanding the impact of human activity on the environment where you will work to develop scientific, risk-based solutions to the worlds greatest challenges. An interdisciplinary approach to problem solving will draw upon your understand of environmental processes and human-environment interactions to develop data driven results. This course will delve into issues such as climate change, water resource management, sustainable natural resource use, and the rehabilitation of degraded and polluted environments.
