Structure
Students completing a Climate Change specialisation in the Master of Environment will complete two core subjects and at least three subjects from a list of compulsory specialisation subjects. Students in the 200 point pathway will complete at least 12.5 points of subjects selected from a list of compulsory ‘capstone’ subjects which will enable students to plan and execute a substantial project in an area related to climate change. Students in the 100 point pathway will not normally be required to complete this component. Students will choose the remainder of subjects from an approved subject list in consultation with the coordinator of the Climate Change stream. More information about this stream can be found here:
