About this specialisation
Soil Science and Hydrology furthers students expertise in soil, water and climate, and their links with functional, resilient and productive ecosystems.
Soil, water and climate define the physical constraints to ecosystems, and the interpreting of these along with their costs and benefits supports the development of policy and sustainable management strategies.
This knowledge will help secure our soil and water resources to maintain healthy, functional and productive ecosystems.
