The Graduate Diploma in Environmental and Resource Economics is designed to provide students with a solid training in basic economic principles and techniques, with an emphasis on environmental and resource economics.  There is a strong analytical and quantitative component and students should be capable of undertaking studies in mathematics and statistics at a fairly advanced level.

Students who complete the Graduate Diploma in Environmental and Resource Economics may be admitted to candidature for the Master of Environmental and Resource Economics.

Prerequisites

Applicants should normally hold:

(1) a Bachelor degree from an Australian University; or

(2) a degree from a recognised university or other tertiary institution approved by the Admissions Sub-Committee that is equivalent to a degree of Bachelor from an Australian University; or

(3) relevant equivalent practical experience deemed by the Admissions Sub-Committee to qualify the student for admission and approved by the Delegated Authority.

Students may be admitted to the Graduate Diploma without a background in economics provided that they have a strong academic record and a willingness and capacity to master mathematical and statistical applications in relation to economics.
