To study in Australia, Wildlife Biology and conservation are connected to the same disciplines such as ecology, natural resource management and animal science. Topics covered by biodiversity and systematic conservation are: land conservation, biodiversity information, evolution and biodiversity, ecology, new water ecology, or local management.
This course focuses on the knowledge and skills needed to understand the importance of biodiversity conservation. Students develop the ability to analyze what happens between humans and the world of complex ecosystems, and use the tools of modern biology to find ways that address important conservation issues. The course covers ecology, genetics, wildlife management, animal and plant biology, evolution and the thought and practice of biodiversity conservation. Students benefit from a learning environment inspired by world-class research academics with strong industry and governmental links.
A strong active focus ensures students are prepared for positions in government agencies, industry and other organizations undertaking biodiversity conservation, other conservation and environmental management practices (such as wetlands, forests, coastal areas and arid areas).
