Structure
Students will be required to complete the two core subjects and the two subjects that are compulsory to this major and undertake electives to make up the balance of the award. The selection of electives is made in consultation with the Sustainable Cities, Sustainable Regions major coordinators. It is the intention of this stream that students select from both regional and urban based subjects in order to intellectually connect with the social and ecological flows that connect regional and urban environments and landscapes.
For a current list of subjects offered in the Sustainable Cities, Sustainable Regions major, please refer to the course information page at: http://environment.unimelb.edu.au/courses/streams/sustainable_cities_sustainable_regions
