Conservation biologists strive to maintain three key aspects of life on Earth: biological diversity, ecological integrity and ecological health.The Graduate Certificate of Conservation Biology focuses on the theory, practice and ethics of biodiversity conservation and wildlife biology, from the level of wild populations to entire ecosystems. An emphasis is placed on the unique biodiversity of Australia and its connections with the rest of the globe. This course will suit current practitioners wishing to upgrade their knowledge and skills, as well as those seeking employment in this sector.
