Ecology and biodiversity is a broad and diverse programme that includes scientific studies of various organisms exploring its diversity and interaction with the environment.
Malaysia’s rich biodiverse terrestrial and aquatic natural ecosystems play vital life-support roles that provide us with quality air, food and water as well as numerous other health and economic benefits.
However, continuing habitat destruction and other anthropogenic impacts are resulting in major biodiversity loss especially in the tropics.
As such, studies related to documentation of biodiversity and their linkages to the environment are of great value to the nation.
In this regard, this program aims to produce well rounded graduates specialising in this subject which is in line with the vision of the country to conserve its biodiversity, to promote and ensure the sustainable use of biological resources.
