Course description
The interdisciplinary study of conservation science underpins the sustainable development and transparency of several major industries. These include industries such as tourism, forestry, fisheries, agriculture and mining. Making use of the broad and well-established network of related industry contacts associated with the conservation scientists in the School of Biological Sciences at UQ, you will be given the opportunity to make direct contact, and engage with conservation practitioners in this course.
