This course has been designed to prepare students to work at a professional
level in the management and utilisation of resources and the environment,
particularly natural resources, with an emphasis on best practice and
sustainability. Students are provided with a wide range of analytical,
monitoring and management skills. It enables students to undertake concurrently
the Bachelor of Science (Environmental Management) degree from Monash
University and the Diploma of Natural Resource Management from various TAFE
institutes including East Gippsland, Chisholm and Northern Melbourne institutes
of TAFE.
This cross-sectorial course (commonly referred to as a double-award course)
provides students with the opportunity to combine the applied ´hands on',

discipline-based courses available from the university. The double award, if

Part-time study and flexible delivery options (distance education) are
