Bachelor of Applied Science (Biodiversity Management)

... New Zealand
... Toi Ohomai Institute of Technology

Course Overview

Offered in partnership with Unitec | Te Pūkenga, you'll get your hands dirty straight away, learning about ecosystems, conservation issues, sustainable management of land, animals, and plant life, as well as the management strategies that promote the conservation of biodiversity and address bio-security.

As a biodiversity management student, you’ll explore how ecosystems function and support biological diversity, and how managers of biodiversity are responding to increasing concern over the impact of human activities on the planet.

Find out how society views and influences the natural environment, discover how social, cultural, and policy frameworks influence management decisions, and develop plant identification knowledge and skills.

You’ll also develop an appreciation of the influence that government agencies, non-statutory organisations, and voluntary bodies have on biodiversity and bio-security.

The Environmental Management pathway at Toi Ohomai offers three qualifications in three years:

After one year of study: New Zealand Diploma in Environmental Management (Level 5)

After two years of study: New Zealand Diploma in Environmental Management (Level 6)

After three years of study: Bachelor of Applied Science (Biodiversity Management) (From Unitec | Te Pūkenga)
