Programme Name Bachelor of Science in Environmental Management
Programme Description
The new Bachelor of Science (Environmental Management) program has been designed to provide its graduates with knowledge and skills in environmental science and management as well as laboratory research, problem-solving, data gathering, analysis and reporting, and inspiration to address the needs of the local community and to help with government regulation. The Department of Meteorological and Environment Science under the Faculty of Science aims to provide high-quality education and research in Environmental Science and related fields. The Department's main task is to provide excellent teaching and develop a high-quality research programme. In the last few decades, there has been a growing realization of the significance of environmental issues and challenges faced by the Pacific Islands countries. Major environmental issues and challenges include climate change, sea-level rise; water quality; availability of fresh water in small island countries; waste disposal; mining; deforestation and related land degradation; coral reef destruction, excessive usage of agrochemicals, and rapid urbanization. Small island countries are fragile environments, and one small error may contaminate an entire freshwater system or a large land area, destroying or rendering entire atoll island nations uninhabitable. Fiji's student population, the next generation of Fiji, continues to grow while Fiji hastily moves towards development. With the much-needed developmental process, profound environmental changes are expected, hence the requirement for better trained ecological scientists, researchers and decision-makers. Their task would be to provide scientific guidance and technical knowledge and assist in decision-making to support the developmental process while protecting the environment for the benefit of the community.
