Course Overview
A flexibly structured degree path means you have the opportunity to study abroad for a year or work in the industry for a year, either locally, nationally or overseas.
You will be taught through a combination of lectures, tutorials, seminars, and discussion groups, supported by practical classes and field courses.
Our state-of-the-art teaching and research facilities include the Centre for Sustainable Aquatic Research, a Zoological Museum, a custom-designed 18-metre catamaran-class survey vessel, and a unique visualisation centre that displays multi-dimensional information from animal tracking data.
Field courses available near and far allow you to work in varied habitats locally and internationally.
