应用科学研究生文凭（PGDipAppSc）是一个为期两个学期的课程，以本科应用科学学位为基础。它允许当前正在工作的人员进行学习，一个学习证书课程，另一个学习文凭课程。或者，学生不妨连续完成120分制课程。<br>在国内和国际上，我们面临着与人类与海洋环境互动相关的日益严峻的挑战，包括海平面上升，温度变化，风暴泛滥，生物多样性减少和鱼类资源，以增加对沿海地区水产养殖的利用。计划和管理这些变化需要跨学科的方法，其中需要将对海洋环境中运行的物理和生物系统的理解与人类对海洋环境的复杂兴趣相结合，从保护到本土利益再
The Postgraduate Diploma in Applied Science (PGDipAppSc) is a two semester programme, which builds on an undergraduate Applied Science degree. It allows people who are currently working to undertake blocks of study - one block for the certificate, a second block to complete the diploma. Alternatively, students may wish to complete the 120 point programme in a continuous run.<br>Nationally and internationally, we face increasing challenges associated with human interaction with the marine environment, from rising sea levels, changing temperatures, increasing storm inundation, decreasing biodiversity and fish stocks, to increasing use of the coastal zone for aquaculture. Projecting and managing these changes requires an interdisciplinary approach where an understanding of the physical and biological systems operating in the marine environment is integrated with the complex human interest in the marine environment from conservation to indigenous interest to government (local, region and national) management approaches.
