Description

The course is concerned with changes in natural resources (water, soil, plants and animals, landscapes) and their management. The course develops scientific skills and understanding to manage and sustain resource use. The provision of services is examined in the field and through other activities in this course. Skills and knowledge will be developed in a diversity of natural resource settings or examples such as forestry, farming, floodplain, weed and mine management to give students an understanding of the scale of change and the ways good resource managers can achieve desirable outcomes. Integration of human and biophysical scientific approaches and field studies are integral parts of the course.
