Community Liaison Officer, Conservation Council of WA
BSc (Zoology); Postgraduate Diploma of Science Communication

The Science Communication course at UWA offers a really good balance of theory and practical components, and it was easy to see how the skills acquired could be applied to not only my future employment but also to life in general. Not only that, UWA provides a great environment in which to study.

We offer postgraduate coursework and research courses in a wide variety of subject areas. 

Some courses include a mixture of coursework units and research.

All you need to do is choose a program that meets your experience, interests and goals.

Serious about research?

You can undertake a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in any area of science. Many disciplines also offer a Master's of Science by pure research. More information is available on the Future Students website.
