理学学士和法学学士-土壤科学与水文学

土壤科学和水文学专业将为您提供土壤，水和气候这三个关键领域的培训，以及它们与功能性，复原力和生产性生态系统的联系。该专业非常重视通过野外学校进行基于实地的学习，并通过非空间和空间数据的分析来强调野外测量和建模。通过案例研究和项目，您将识别并分析现实世界中的问题，以识别维护这些相互关联系统功能的选项。您将学习地理信息系统（GIS），实验室和数据分析方面的通用技能，使您能够在公共和私营企业的广泛职业中找到工作，并从事土地和土壤管理的基础研究和应用研究。
Soil and water security are major human existential challenges to the planet and more so in Australia, being the driest continent with highly weathered soils.<br><br>The Soil Science and Hydrology major provides students with training in three key areas, soil, water and climate, and their links with functional, resilient and productive ecosystems.<br><br>Soil, water and climate define the physical constraints to ecosystems, and the interpretation of these along with their costs and benefits supports the development of policy and sustainable management strategies.<br><br>This knowledge will help secure our soil and water resources to maintain healthy, functional and productive ecosystems. We will explore the complex interaction between soil, water and climate, and the way we manage our landscapes. Ecosystems are considered across paddock to catchment scales and include all sectors from agriculture to forestry to mining to nature reserves.<br><br>This major has a strong emphasis on field-based learning through field schools and emphasis on field measurement and modelling through analysis of non-spatial and spatial data. Working with case studies and projects, you will identify and analyse real-world problems with the aim of identifying options to maintain the functionality of these interrelated systems. Students will develop generic skills in GIS, laboratory and data analysis that will enable students to contribute to water and soil security.<br>The Soil Science and Hydrology major provides students with training in three key areas, soil, water and climate, and their links with functional, resilient and productive ecosystems.
