The suite of programs - the Master of Environmental Management and the associated Graduate Certificate and Graduate Diploma is a new initiative for the University. It is coordinated by the Institute of Environmental Studies, which also runs the three core courses.
Environmental management is no longer a peripheral issue for organisations.
As we enter the 21st century environmental concerns, and more broadly 'sustainability', are likely to provide both the greatest constraints and the greatest opportunities for business. At the same time governments are being challenged to design sophisticated frameworks for environmental management to encourage business practice which meets sustainability goals and to ensure that local and international environmental commitments can be met. Those in non-government organisations are faced with adapting their roles within this fast changing context.
