Wildlife is vanishing throughout the world. Many species will disappear during your working life.

Do you want to buck this trend and reverse imminent species loss? Our Bachelor of Science (Wildlife Conservation Biology) gives you the knowledge and skills to safeguard our ecosystems and protect the future of wildlife in crisis.   

This degree is hands-on and prepares you to become a conservation advocate in both theory and practise. You will:

• split your time between the lab and the field as you learn to champion biodiversity conservation
• use new technology, like drones and satellites to collect data and monitor habitats
• conduct field research for real-life monitoring programs
• build valuable industry connections with organisations—from Arid Recovery and BioR in South Australia to Conservation International
• learn to identify plants and animals in natural settings
• consider the social, political and economic constraints of the field
• develop the skills to plan, execute and monitor habitat restoration programs for declining species.
