Waste Management
Structure
200 credit points
Students will be required to complete the two core subjects, plus choose three subjects from the compulsory specialisation subject list. Students in the 200 point pathway must take at least 12.5 points of subjects from the compulsory capstone subjects – these subjects enable students to complete an independent project in the area of waste management. Students in the 100 point pathway will not normally be required to complete this component. Students must also undertake electives to make up the balance of the award. The selection of electives is made in consultation with the Waste Management major coordinator. More information about this stream can be found here:
