Bachelor of Environmental Science
This course consists of a four-year full-time, or equivalent
part-time, program leading to a pass or honours degree of
Bachelor of Environmental Science. All students complete common
first and second year programs. In third and fourth years
students specialise in one of the four strands:
Earth Sciences
Land Resources
Life Sciences
Pollution Control
The awarding of an honours degree is based on the student's
performance in selected subjects offered in third and fourth
years of the course. Students will be informed the subjects
on which the Honours assessment is based.
