Master of Environment and Sustainability - How to enrol

To enrol in the course once you have received your full offer, you will need to complete steps 1-5 of the online enrolment instructions.

Please ensure you make some tentative enrolments early but note that you can still amend your units up until Week 2 of each semester. You need to make some tentative enrolments to accept your offer but then you can consult one on one or come to our Course Mapping session in Orientation week (see your email) to gain further advice and make any changes.

You will then be required to attend the course information session where you will learn more about the course, meet with specialisation coordinators and receive help with course planning and unit selection. You are encouraged to make a time with the Course Coordinator if you have specific questions or circumstances (eg, credits) that affect your personal course map.

Please note: Some units will not be available to enrol in via WES and these will require permission from the unit coordinator and manual enrolment by sending a request via Ask Monash, attaching the permission. You will be able to amend your unit enrolment after the course information session.

Credit

If you have previous studies relevant to your Environment and Sustainability specialisation, or have appropriate work experience in this area, you may be eligible for academic credit and commence at entry level 2 or 3.

If you wish to apply for credit for previous tertiary study you must read carefully the information provided on the credit webpage.

Accepting academic credit may reduce the duration of your course. Your course may be reduced from 2 years to either 1.5 years or 1 year.

To ensure that the maximum credit is provided, please indicate on your credit application, your area of specialisation chosen from the following options:

• Corporate environmental and sustainability management
• Environment and governance
• Environmental security
• International development and environment
• Leadership for sustainable development

You must clearly state in your application whether you are applying for 24 points of Part B credit based upon your undergraduate studies (entry level 2) or credit for Part D (entry level 3). You are welcome to upload your CV alongside your academic transcript. Note: Accepting credit for Part D may affect your capacity to undertake an internship, interdisciplinary project, or thesis.

Here are some things you need to do:

• Check next year’s handbook to find units you want to study for both semesters unless you expect to complete your course earlier.
• Make sure you meet the requirements of your course by enrolling in the right core units and suitable electives. If you’re unsure please seek course advice.
• Check for prerequisites, corequisites and prohibited units.
• Some units require permission from the unit coordinator. Once you receive this permission submit an enrolment amendment request and attach the permission.
• Part D unit ENS5920 project doesn’t require any permission or an application process. Part D units ENS5900, ENS5901 and ENS5902 research thesis require permission from the unit coordinator and approval from the School/Department where the research will be undertaken. Part D unit ENS5910 project requires permission from the unit coordinator. Part D unit ENS5930 industry internship requires you to go through an application process. Permission to undertake this unit is considered once results are released for the current semester. In the meantime please enrol in ENS5920 as a placeholder for ENS5930.
• Refer to the course and unit handbook. If you enrol in a unit then change your mind, don’t worry, you’ll be able to add or discontinue units later.

What happens if I don’t re-enrol on time?

You must re-enrol or apply for intermission by the close of the re-enrolment period to avoid late re-enrolment fee. See late or failure to re-enrol and re-enrolment dates and timeline for more information.
