Understanding the relationship between birds and landscape characteristics is therefore fundamental to their conservation. It is assumed students already have a sound knowledge of avian ecology and/or geographic information systems combined with skills in communication because in this subject students undertake a critical evaluation of relevant literature and develop and implement of their own research project under the guidance of the subject coordinator. The subject has no residential school.
