Maintaining the balance between our environment and human development is challenging. The future needs you to work on sustainable solutions to issues including increasing biodiversity loss, urbanisation and climate change.
The ANU Bachelor of Environment & Sustainability (Advanced)(Honours) is a contemporary degree, covering environmental science, policy and social sciences, allowing you to address the complex challenges of sustainability.
This broad environmental education includes a sound basis in theory and methods, with a focus on hands-on applications and field-based, research-led learning.
This degree offers direct entry to the four-year Bachelor (Honours) program, and includes enhanced research-led learning opportunities throughout your studies, so you gain the research skills needed to develop new knowledge and insights in environment and sustainability.
At a minimum, all applicants must meet program-specific academic/non-academic requirements, and English language requirements. Admission to most ANU programs is on a competitive basis. Therefore, meeting all admission requirements does not guarantee entry into the program.
In line with the university's admissions policy and strategic plan, an assessment for admission may include competitively ranking applicants on the basis of specific academic achievement, English language proficiency and diversity factors.
The University reserves the right to alter or discontinue its programs and change admission requirements as needed.
