Bachelor of Science (Ecology and Conservation Biology)

Course Details

The Bachelor of Science is a three-year degree, in which you will complete 24 subjects, of which some will contribute to your major (your chosen specialisation). Incredibly flexible, you can choose to begin your specialisation immediately, if you have decided on your major, or in second year after completing foundational subjects in first year. We can help you build the degree thats right for you by providing career advice and guiding you through your study options to ensure you reach your career goals. Your ecology and conservation biology major is incredibly practical, incorporating field and laboratory studies at all levels, providing extensive opportunities for hands-on learning both within UOWs purpose-built Sciences Teaching Facility, and in the superb environments of the South Coast and inland regions of NSW. Ecologists and conservation biologists are broadly trained, using the latest scientific knowledge, tools and techniques in both laboratory and outdoor settings to understand problems and develop solutions across the areas of biodiversity, conservation, ecology, evolution, genetics, marine biology, medical research, and molecular biology.
