Discover how you can help society become more resilient in the face of climate change. Examine issues such as infrastructure planning, sustainability measures and public wellbeing. Understand government policy processes and what needs to be prioritised.

Master of Climate Change Adaptation

Our river basins or catchments have been progressively transformed over time. We&#39;ve built cities, we&#39;ve cleared land for food production and this has had profound consequences for our catchments.With this specialist degree you&#39;ll learn to combine and use scientific, engineering and economic knowledge to planning ways to protect, restore and rehabilitate our catchments. You&#39;ll develop the leading edge knowledge and skills needed to make a difference in this rapidly developing area of professional practice. The Master of Catchment Science is the only catchment-dedicated postgraduate degree in the world. Hosted by the International WaterCentre and developed and delivered in collaboration with Griffith University.

This is the only postgraduate degree of its kind in the world. You will learn how to plan projects that preserve Australia’s river catchments. Combine your scientific, engineering and economic knowledge. Work directly with a water sector employer.
