The Master of Fisheries Policy degree is designed specifically for fisheries or environmental policy officers and mid-level managers or enforcement officers, or for those wanting to pursue a career in fisheries and marine resources management.
This degree provides a broad understanding of the law of the sea and the issues facing the fisheries sector, including fisheries management; monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS); fish trade; and regulatory compliance.
You will look at the relationships between fisheries law, policy, science, economics and trade in the management of fisheries resources and analyse the legal, political and operational factors that make sustainable fisheries management so difficult and devise solutions to the problems.
One of the benefits for students of the Master of Fisheries Policy is the close links that UOW’s Australian National Centre for Ocean Resources and Security (ANCORS) has established with a range of government agencies, international businesses and non-governmental organisations in Australia, the Indo-Pacific region and globally, including a long-term relationship with the Royal Australian Navy.
See the course handbook for more information.
