Course description

In the BEnvSc honours year you will conduct an independent research project within your area of interest in environmental science, under the supervision of an academic staff member. This part of the BEnvSc program is designed to extend your independence as a scientist and give you the skills that will enable you to understand research and its demands in environmental science, allow you to make the transition to research higher degree study, and prepare you for entry into the workforce with a considerable degree of independence. The ability you develop will enable you to work without close supervision in a research environment, in industry or government, or in pursuit of a research higher degree. You will learn how to develop meaningful research questions, design appropriate experiments and observations, analyse data and communicate your findings. You will do this through the development of a research proposal, proposal seminar, research report for your results, final seminar and seminar diaries.
