ESSENTIAL PRACTICAL SKILLS TO WORK IN ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
Climate change, species extinction, pollution, emissions trading schemes (ETS's) and "greening" economies are the catch-phrases and concerns of informed people worldwide. New employment opportunities are constantly emerging in this field but, despite this continuing growth, many graduates in the environmental sciences still find that a job eludes them. Often this is because their studies have not covered the subjects and skills which are in fact providing the employment opportunities. This course provides a unique opportunity to develop those "in demand" applied skills, as well as providing the essential content and theory to support those skills.
Subjects studied include: Introduction to Ecology, Conservation and Environmental Management, Environmental Waste Management, Soil Management, Botany I, Eco-tour Management, Project Management, Wildlife Management and Environmental Assessment.
