First year students take core courses in organismal biology, ecology and environmental science, introduction to soils and fundamentals and applications of chemistry; Honours students undertake a supervised research project and a range of intensive courses relevant to a specialisation; thus, students doing the physical sciences option have a stronger emphasis on chemistry then those studying the main environmental science programme.
