The Master of Conservation Biology program will show you how to use science to support conservation strategies and policies.
It integrates conservation, ecology and biodiversity – with a focus on the problems of restoring and maintaining viable populations of animal and plant species, and natural and managed ecosystems – so you can better confront complex conservation problems.
You'll deepen your understanding of all aspects of biodiversity and conservation, environmental philosophy, national and international conservation policy, and systematic conservation decision-making processes.
In addition to advanced-level coursework, you'll complete a variety of fieldwork teaching at unique sites, such as subtropical rainforests, national parks, and UQ’s Heron Island and Moreton Bay research stations.
