Education WAÂ introduces School Of Environmental Science And Management - Southern Cross University in Lismore, for all your education and learning needs.
By choosing to study an Environmental Science degree at Southern Cross University you will have the opportunity to be part of the solution to the environmental challenges of the 21st century.
Within Australian government and private sectors there has been a strategic shift towards sustainability. Climate change is no longer just affecting the environment, it cuts across into economics, infrastructure and government policy making. Likewise, today's forestry, mining and agriculture enterprises need to ensure environmentally appropriate outcomes for their projects.
Our teaching and research is focused on innovative approaches to these contemporary issues including global warming, salinity, sustainable agriculture and forestry and our graduates and are finding their skills in high demand in the public and private sectors.
Our teaching is informed by our research, with the Centre for Coastal Biogeochemistry Research, Marine Ecology Research Centre, and Southern Cross Environmental Innovations Research Centre contributing to our profile.
Marine Science students have access to the National Marine Science Centre at Coffs Harbour and our forestry program is the largest in Australia.
