ABOUT THE DEGREES
The Master of Environment (M Env), Graduate
Diploma (GD Env) and Graduate Certificate in
Environment (GC Env) are flexible interdisciplinary
degrees by coursework and research, focused on environment and sustainability.
Each degree has a core which addresses the different components of sustainability,
and major specialisation component so that
programs can be structured to meet individual
interests. Specialisations also develop
students’ analytical and communication skills
through independent research for a major essay
or sub-thesis. Many courses can be taken in
intensive mode.
ANU has nationally- and internationally- distinctive
research and teaching
in environment and sustainability, and offers
an integrated suite of
undergraduate, postgraduate and postdoctoral
programs. Postgraduate environment student can follow a direct pathway
from the GC Env to GD Env and M Env. For example, the GC
Env provides a flexible structure for
those graduate students who wish only to access
a limited number of courses, and an entry
point for the more advanced coursework degree.

Environment and sustainability issues are becoming increasingly important. Students and professionals who wish to advance their knowledge and skills in these areas will benefit from world leading environmental research and teaching at the ANU. They will go on to careers in environmental management, policy development and/or research. The degree should advantage staff from federal and state government agencies, local government, NGOs and statutory environmental management organisations, as well as consultants.
