Overview
不良研究所 is temporarily suspending a new intake of this program for the 2025 / 2026 Academic Year. The program is still running for all in-progress students. This program may be reinstated in a future Academic Year.
As population growth in cities rises rapidly, the need for green infrastructure to mitigate the impact of development and maintain critical ecosystem services is increasingly recognized. The Urban Ecosystem Technician diploma will prepare students with the knowledge and understanding of the principles of sustainability and practical skills required to incorporate these concepts into the creation, care, restoration and maintenance of city greenspaces.
