Environmental Assessment and Restoration students measure water levels in a well using a datalogger, housed in an instrument shelter, as part of their Hydrogeology course.
We’d all like to make a contribution to the environment; by studying environmental assessment and restoration, you can be a part of the movement. When Nobel Peace prizes are being awarded for global conservation, it’s obvious the environment is getting more attention than ever. It’s in need of some work and it’s time to begin the job. Each day sees increasing demands on the environment. The challenge is to balance environmental, social and economic needs. These needs range from resource extraction and exploitation to outdoor enthusiasts seeking recreation and relaxation. Left unchecked our environment will run out of resources. To ensure it remains sustainable requires a team of dedicated, committed and educated people. After all, it’s the right thing to do. Our two-year diploma in Environmental Assessment and Restoration prepares you for the challenges with a unique mix of law, technical skills and science. With these tools you are ready for a successful career in this fast-growing sector. You’ll learn how to collect, understand, interpret and manage environmental information, ready to test your new skills in our extensive field studies components. Hands-on lab and field experience will show you how resource management works in the real world. With our diploma, you’ll be ready to address emerging issues such as regeneration of disturbed lands, water quality management, and restoring abandoned industrial sites. The jobs are there now.
