About the course

The management of natural resources managed by the public sector, in particular protected areas and national parks, is of great national interest and an area which creates significant debate between public and private interests. To manage these areas and contribute to solutions to the issues requires an understanding of the ecological issues and workings of public sector natural resource management. Unique to these courses is a focus on the role cultural resources because these play a significant role in the eventual outcome of how natural resources can be managed.

Exit points from the Master program are provided at the Graduate Certificate and Graduate Diploma levels.
