I can only speak briefly about forest employment in Australia as am not an expert on these matters. Some information is better than none. Two Universities have run a Bachelor of Forest Science for many years now. They are the University of Melbourne, and the Australian National University, in Canberra. A third university is now offering the same degree, being the Southern Cross University, NSW. The entry prerequisites from high school are similar to that for a Science degree, and usually very similar in ranking. (ie. the cut-off score is similar for both degrees). At all locations I believe the Bachelor of Forest Science is a four year degree. There is a bit more info on Australian Forestry at Web Site Hope this helps. Ben Munro e-mail |
