Focusing on unique Australian fauna, you’ll learn about the processes leading to the exceptional biodiversity that exists today, the threats facing this biodiversity and the management strategies and policies that can be used to limit, and in some cases reverse, the impact of these threats. You’ll be immersed in nature both in the classroom and out in the field. 

 

The Wildlife Conservation extended major allows you to study animals with a special emphasis on understanding their relative conservation status and options for recovering viable populations of threatened species.
