At least one field trip will be an important activity during the semester.Please Note: All students studying at Murdoch University will need to complete the compulsory unit, Murdoch Academic Passport (MAP100), which only takes 2-3 hours to complete online.

Tasmania has a growing reputation as a gourmet paradise, with high quality primary products and a growing fermented food and drink industry. In this subject, students will learn about the full production life cycle for fermented food and drink, from raw materials and fermentation basics, through to the packaging, labelling, distribution and marketing of final products. Development of more fermentation businesses in Tasmania may offer an alternative to current problems of an economy reliant on extraction, high agricultural food waste, and over-reliance on State-based employment.While staff from the Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture drive this subject, expert input and content has been sourced across a range of fermentation industries, so students will have access to a diverse range of online materials. Assessment is 100% internal (i.e., no exam) and structured to encourage you to actively engage with ideas and issues and learn collaboratively with and through your peers.

Human activity has altered fifty percent of the Earth&#39;s surface, leading to various consequences, both positive and negative, on our landscapes. However, the opportunities to explore, conserve, and appreciate pristine and exposed landscapes are growing, giving rise to the fields of geoconservation and geotourism. This unique subject explores strategies for investigating, understanding, and addressing issues related to geoconservation and geotourism. Through a series of field-based, and problem-based learning experiences, you will acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to create and manage (geo)heritage inventories, evaluate potential sites for geotourism and geoeducational purposes, design new geotouristic experiences, and develop materials for both consumers and operators in the fields of geoconservation and geotourism.Our program is the only one of its kind in Australia, allowing you to work on real-world case studies and collaborate with leaders in these fields. We look at all forms of Geodiversity - waterways, soils, mountains, fossils, volcanoes and more. Imagine a world where rocks are not just &#39;rock and roll,&#39; but the rockstars of Earth&#39;s history, and geoheritage is our backstage pass to study and conserve their epic stories! Join us as we provide guidance on how to recognise and nominate sites for conservation, restore degraded lands, create trails and geotouristic experiences and explore UNESCO Geoparks whilst utilising cutting-edge digital technologies, conducting social and scientific research, and fostering close relationships with industries and protected area groups. Absolutely no background knowledge is required to undertake this subject, and all are welcome. All techniques and experiences will be provided to you within the subject. This subject provides students with opportunities to undertake over 50 hours of in-field training for students wanting to travel to Tasmania, or exiting online professional training if you live elsewhere in the world.

This subject will enable students to understand how tourism and cultural industries have dramatically changed our lives. Cultural industries have grown significantly, with examples such as museums, regional festivals and wilderness adventures. At the same time there is an increasing capacity for travel and an increasing need to replace income earned from traditional industries with those from tourism. Different societies are now not only in greater contact with each other but also relating to each other in new ways, as well as benefitting from the growth of cultural capacity in their own localities. The subject will cover three related areas: <ul><li>The first situates the creative economy in the various social, economic and political contexts around the world. Creative cultural industries have become crucial to the life of major cities, regional economies and remote areas. </li><li>The second area that is explored relates to the way in which creative and cultural industries have expanded through travel, international access and changes in the way cities, history, nature, culture, music, food, and art develop into new forms of experiences. </li><li>The third area that is explored relates to creative and cultural case studies. You will also learn about options for communicating research and knowledge transfer, the collection and collation of literature and background research.</li></ul>

The planning, implementing and evaluating of major sport events is characterised by dynamic management environments that bring together a wide array of stakeholders.

This course will introduce students to the complexity of managing major sport events. Students will study a number of planning, operations and event legacy management issues across the life span of major sport events, from the bid phase to event evaluations. This course will offer students practical as well as theoretical insights into the dynamic and at times challenging nature of sport event management.Students should not enrol in this subject if they have completed: 2018HSL Organising and Staging Major Sport Events / 2018THS Sport Event and Facility Planning
