Bachelor of Aquaculture and Marine Conservation (Level 7)
At Te Pukenga NMIT, we bring together marine conservation and aquaculture to start addressing solutions to the threats to many of our planet's marine and freshwater environments. These threats have come from overfishing, pollution, habitat destruction, climate change and more. Education about marine conservation is critical to start addressing these global and local issues.
Students are encouraged to think further and be taught about tropical marine environments. All this knowledge is combined to create a greater understanding of ecology and environmental impacts to further progress momentum into the marine conservation and sustainable aquaculture space.
The programme was designed with industry, so you will graduate with practical skills and knowledge in aquatic ecology and marine conservation biology and communication and operations management skills to immediately contribute to the aquaculture industry, locally, nationally or internationally.
If you are already in the industry in New Zealand and looking to get a qualification, talk to us about how we can make that work for you to study alongside your employment.
