Forest Science and Management

This is really a postgraduate qualification in plantation and natural pest control. Concerns about climate change, carbon sequestration and environmentfriendly construction materials have ceased the requirement for skilled forest managers. Worldwide, pest control is becoming more intensive, with many woods products traded internationally as products. Consequently, pest control agencies today require foresters with enhanced skills in tactical management and planning, which can be both options that come with the training course. The Graduate Diploma of Forest Science and Management is also available as a entry point and is suited to graduates with a background in general or environmental sciences who want to find careers in government forest products and services , management of indigenous woods, fire fighting, land use and parks management, mine site rehab, plantation control and forestry restoration.

Master graduates qualify for full membership of the Institute of Foresters of Australia.
