SCENV3120 Landscape Restoration and Mine Site Rehabilitation
This unit explores the ecological and philosophical basis of restoration and mined land rehabilitation. This is achieved by consideration of significant ecological problems needing active restoration (such as mined landscapes, salinity, erosion, habitat loss, weeds, bush encroachment). Other key elements of restoration are explored such as political programs relevant to restoration and mined land rehabilitation (such as Landcare plans, catchment nutrient and salinity plans, and State of the Environment reporting), planning of restoration and mine site projects (including objectives, strategies, budgeting), restoration and rehabilitation: funding opportunities and requirements, monitoring and management of restoration and rehabilitation efforts (mine site rehabilitation and habitat restoration efforts) and legislation and governance (federal, state and local; international agreements and obligations) relating to landscape restoration and mine site rehabilitation. Restoration and rehabilitation in the face of current and projected climate change also receives attention.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,164
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
