Update for re-enrolling learners

Completing your programme 

We recommend you prioritise completing the environment courses in your programme first as these courses will be phased out over the next five years.  See the table below for the last dates they will be offered.  You will need to enrol and successfully complete the environment courses by the last date they are offered.

You can then complete the remaining courses that make up the 360 credits required to complete the Bachelor of Applied Science (Environment).

Please note, to be awarded this qualification, you must complete all courses for the programme within 9 years of your first enrolment. If you need more time due to exceptional circumstances, please contact us.

If you have any questions, or need help with a study plan to complete your qualification, please contact us.

Check the Study plan PDF to see the suggested order to study your courses. How long it will take you to complete the qualification will depend on whether you study one, two or three courses each trimester.

If this is your first enrolment we recommend you enrol in one course per trimester to start with.
