Bachelor of Resource Economics
(Part-time study, during the daytime only, may be available in certain circumstances)
Assumed knowledge: Extension 1 Mathematics.
Major studies: Resource economics, economics, environmental economics, fishery economics, mineral and energy economics, water and land economics, agricultural science, commercial law, finance, geography, geology, government, marine science, mathematics, soil science and statistics.
Professional Experience: For students enrolling since 2008, this professional experience requirement is credited to the AFNR4001 unit of study. Overseas experience is encouraged.
Professional recognition: Graduates and undergraduates are eligible for membership of the Australian Agricultural and Resource Economics Society, the Economic Society of Australia, the Australia and New Zealand Society of Ecological Economics, the Australian Institute of Agricultural Science and Technology and the American Agricultural Economics Association.
Career opportunities: Include environmental consulting firms, green organisations, mining and energy companies. State and Federal government opportunities include environmental agencies, land and water departments, agriculture departments, fisheries and forestry authorities. Economic analysis skills are transferable, allowing employment as economists in any sector of the economy.
Additional information: BResEc is a unique applied economics degree, blending a basic science foundation with a strong disciplinary base in economics. All students will take units of basic science, complete sequences in economics, resource economics, and quantitative analytical economics; undertake electives in economics and/or science; and examine a wide range of natural resource management problems. Students will specialise in and complete a research project in a selected area of resource economics.
The focus is on developing broadly applicable analytical economic skills complemented with an adequate knowledge of ecological and other natural resource systems and skills in modelling those systems in order to contribute to the solution of challenging environmental and management problems.
The course is targeted at students interested in economic management of natural resources systems, environmental economics, fishery and forestry economics, ecosystems, conservation issues, and sustainability.

Majors in the BResEc degree
The definitions of majors in the following tables apply for students commencing in 2005 or later. These students are required to complete 48 credit points in their chosen majors. Their majors must comply with the requirements for the BResEc degree as set out below, and also with the minimum requirements of the discipline teaching that major.
Students who have commenced in 2004 or earlier will be required to complete 44 credit points to obtain a major. The major will be defined according to the criteria as currently determined by the discipline teaching that major. The current requirements for majors in the Faculty of Economics and Business and the Faculty of Science can be found in the respective 2006 faculty handbooks.
All students must complete a Resource Economics major. In addition, students may also complete major(s) in other disciplines.

Notes:
- For disciplines based in other faculties (e.g. Geography is based in the Faculty of Science), the specification of a major here may differ from that in its 'home' faculty. The requirement for a major within the BResEc degree is no less, nor more liberal, than in the discipline's 'home' faculty.
- A student can count a particular unit of study towards only one major.
- Where a student could count a unit of study towards more than one major, the student must nominate by the end of their final year the particular major to which the unit is to be allocated.
