Focus:
With 12 months of study in Environmental Planning and Law I have a
strong focus not only on Ecological processes, but also the ability to
understand the complexities of planning, public interest, stakeholder
involvement and the relevant Queensland and New South Wales
legislation; under which we can effect change.
My ability to interpret information thanks to the help from my lecturers
and structured learning which will ultimately lead me towards
successful decision making in a professional setting.
Analysis of ecological data sets and some exposure to GIS analysis
(ArcGIS, ArcMap).
Science Capstone:
This final element of the Bachelor of Science Degree has seen me individually
design and execute a research project around an important aspect of
Ecological science. I elected to conduct research into the extent of invasive
species within Nerang National Park through the survey of transects adjacent
to recreational trails. All aspects of research and analysis were done
independently with some directional input from my supervisor. The specific
skills needed to successfully complete this key subject included:
Research design and presentation of ideas and key elements
Risk assessment for individuals and volunteers in the field
Accurate survey and assessment of both native and non-native flora
(20 hours)
Accurate record keeping
Data analysis in SPSS and interpretation of results
Formation of a scientific article with a broad range of backing research
Development of scientific poster and presentation of main findings.
These skills are in addition to many other personal skills that have only been
enhanced by degree; I feel confident and competent to step into a position
within Environmental Science and be an asset to any team or organization.
