Graduate Certificate
Effectively managing human interactions with the environment requires a thorough understanding of the interrelationships between land, water, air, biota and people. As an environmental professional, you'll need a clear understanding of the procedures and skills involved in investigating complex environmental issues in a range of urban, mining, agriculture and aquatic settings.
You'll gain a more in-depth understanding of environmental science, including techniques in environmental monitoring. Develop your knowledge and skills in Geographic Information Systems and remote sensing, environmental monitoring and selected advanced techniques employed in environmental management.
This course will be relevant if you are a graduate in sustainability, environmental, marine or conservation science and would like practice in this field. Or, if you're employed by private and public organisations that are active in environmental planning, monitoring or management, this course will give you the skills you need to succeed.
