Master Of Environmental Management (senvm1) in Charles Darwin University

The Master of Environmental Management complements existing science qualifications whether you are a graduate starting out or broadening your professional skill set.

You will focus on the principles and practices of environmental management, particularly in the context of wet-dry and semi-arid tropical ecosystems and arid landscapes.

The broad skills, concepts and applications explored in this course are also relevant even if you are working in other ecosystems, and include a focus on the social context within which environmental management takes place.

The course is flexible and caters to your individual needs. It balances required knowledge and technical skills, develops conceptual skills, and challenges you to apply them to natural resource management within its social context.

Course Structure

The course structure consists of core and specialist elective units plus a research project. The core units include Ecology and Management of Tropical Forests and Savannas, Statistical Methods for Impact Analysis, Community Engagement for Insecurity and Natural Resources Management, Environmental Planning and Policy. These units capture the primary content focus and skills of the program as a whole.

Specialist electives are chosen from the themes: Livelihoods, Natural Resources Management, Spatial Science or General (Specialist Electives A), and from professional or research training units (Specialist Electives B). Specialist Elective units have been chosen to complement the content knowledge, conceptual understanding and skills developed in the Core units. Units including fieldwork may be taken (by students able to attend the relevant field location), through their choice of units. This ensures that students gain first-hand knowledge of biologically rich and diverse tropical ecosystems and meet senior professionals active in the field of environmental management as well as CDU academic staff.

There is also the opportunity to undertake work integrated learning, where students include a workplace-based project in their choice of electives. The program offers an exciting range of opportunities to develop field, technical and practical skills, as well as master level scholarships skills. Students can choose to enroll into intensive units with remote field locations, and there are often a range of international study opportunities available.

The final research project involves supervision by Charles Darwin University research staff, and other professionals from outside the university as appropriate. In their final semester, students design, develop and implement an applied research project. This may also be completed part time over two semesters. Many of the projects are developed in collaboration with research and environmental management agencies, exposing students to professional practices and applications in research and management.
