A Bachelor of Biological Science from UWA will equip you with skills and knowledge that are highly valued and sought after by a diverse range of employers around the globe, and enable you to understand the vulnerabilities and resilience of life on the planet.
You’ll explore the growth, reproduction, adaptation and evolution of living organisms and discover how species and ecological communities can be managed, conserved and restored.
The Wildlife Conservation Extended major allows you to study animals with a special emphasis on understanding their relative conservation status and options for recovering viable populations of threatened species.
Focusing on unique Australian fauna, you’ll learn about the processes leading to the exceptional biodiversity that exists today, the threats facing this biodiversity and the management strategies and policies that can be used to limit, and in some cases reverse, the impact of these threats.
There will be opportunities to study animals living in a diverse range of habitats in Western Australia, from the desert to forests and tropical reefs, and to carry out your studies in both the classroom and in the field.
