Student profiles

Elizabeth Wemyss
Bachelor of Environmental Science (Environmental Management and Sustainability)
Melbourne Burwood Campus

‘Studying at Deakin is giving me all the relevant knowledge and practical skills to be able to work in the environmental field. The facilities and field equipment are great! We have all the up-to-date software for our computer labs and lots of reliable field equipment such as GPSs and water quality parameter testers.

As part of the course I have been on many field trips. I went to Cape Conran for three days and learnt how to capture and handle small mammals, and I also went on a study tour to Taiwan to look at Asian conservation and sustainability.’
