Many others await formal recognition. The study of the distribution and abundance of species and interactions among organisms and their environment is central to understanding how our earth works. The goal of ecology is to understand the principles of operation of natural systems and to predict their responses to change. Ecology helps us understand complex problems. Australia is a mega-diverse region for biodiversity with an estimated 600,000 and 700,000 species, many of which are found nowhere else in the world. About 84% of plants, 83% of mammals and 45% of birds are only found in Australia. The world needs highly trained specialists to deal with the myriad of ecological problems from cane toads to endangered species - the unravelling of ecological parameters is paramount for sustainable ecosystems. This innovative degree provides the opportunity to study the skills and techniques necessary for solving problems associated with a broad of range of ecological issues. Well-qualified graduates may apply to complete the Bachelor of Science with Honours. BSc(Hons) graduates who achieve the appropriate level of Honours are eligible to apply to enrol for a research Master degree or the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD).
