Bachelor of Applied Science (Adventure Ecotourism)

Students are supported in taking at least six weeks of full-time work placement in Australia or overseas to ensure all students receive first-hand experience of what it is like to work in an ecotourism business. Placement opportunities in Australia include:

  • Tasmanian wilderness

  • Great Barrier Reef

  • Australia's far north

  • Western Australia

In addition to the practical and field components of most of the university subjects and the industry placement component of the course, there are many opportunities to participate in voluntary and paid field expeditions to areas such as the Australian alps, Mungo National Park and North Head, Sydney.

In addition, all students are eligible to participate in the Arid Zone Field Ecology course, which takes place in June each year, and in School-based international field trips to locations such as East Timor and Nepal. International experience is also encouraged through CSU's Student Exchange Program.
