This program gives students a unique opportunity to prepare for a career as an environmental scientist or as an urban and environmental planner. Upon graduating, students will be equipped to play an important role in bringing social and natural sciences together to find solutions for complex planning issues and problems.
With a strong focus on practical, hands-on teaching, students will learn in state-of-the-art drawing studios and work on real industry projects. They will be taught by academics who have a strong footing in the industry and have the opportunity to network and connect with industry professionals throughout their degree.
What's more, students will get the chance to undertake an industry placement, allowing them to put their skills into practice and make valuable industry contacts before they graduate.
In their final year, students will complete an independent research project under the supervision of an academic staff member. The Honours program is a critical element for students seeking a direct pathway into research, academia and employment in many consulting and government organisations who prioritise the employment of honours graduates.
