These provide an opportunity for students to learn key skills in forest science, in evaluating vegetation and planning management options. The NSW Northern Rivers region offers a variety of accessible subtropical environments close to the Lismore campus.The course is distinctive for providing graduates with a strong foundation in forest science and incorporates field-based practicums and interactive tutorials.
