Environmental engineers work to combat the negative impacts of human activity on the environment.

Counsellors support others in exploring and overcoming emotional, mental and lifestyle issues.

An honours degree is a one-year program that builds upon undergraduate study by introducing the challenge of an extended research project.There are many reasons we encourage graduates to apply for an honours year. You might want to build the necessary foundations for postgraduate research.

Mechanical engineers work with 'things that move', from prosthetic limbs and robotic systems to motor vehicles, aircrafts and space stations. With maths and computer science more and more central to high technology developments in the field, specialised expertise offers huge benefits.

Responding effectively to environmental problems involves far more than applying scientific knowledge, or the 'top-down' regulation of people and their environments. The future of our planet relies on informed and creative thinking around policy and practice.
