‘Deakin was the only place I could find with an emphasis on environmental management and sustainability. I wanted a macro view of the world. Deakin recognises the human dimensions of environmental science, allowing me to investigate sustainability and still undertake an environmental science degree.

Research is a highly dynamic and engaging learning platform. It’s the process of discovery that is most engaging. It’s nice to feel like I’m making a contribution to environmental science and to my local and global community.’
