Emeritus Professor - School of Environmental and Rural Science

Biography

After a research and management career in Africa, I joined UNE (in 1974) to teach and research in Wildlife Management, a discipline that has attracted students ever since awards in natural resource management began at UNE. Current coursework units in that area include: Australian Wildlife: Evolution, Ecology and Land-use Impacts (EM 251/561); Wildlife Management (EM 423/523); and Biological Conservation (EM 453/553).

I have supervised on-campus and off-campus research projects in wildlife ecology, behaviour and management, for bachelors (B Nat Res, B Sc, & B Env Sc), diploma (Grad Dip Nat Res), masters (M Res Sc, M Nat Res, M Sc) and doctoral (Ph D) awards. UNE wildlife graduates now serve in every national parks service or fauna agency in Australia (and some overseas countries).

In retirement I continue my career-long research interest in the behaviour and ecology of large mammalian herbivores.

The University of New England respects and acknowledges that its people, courses and facilities are built on land, and surrounded by a sense of belonging, both ancient and contemporary, of the world's oldest living culture. In doing so, UNE values and respects Indigenous knowledge systems as a vital part of the knowledge capital of Australia. We recognise the strength, resilience and capacity of the Aboriginal community and pay our respects to the Elders past, present and future.
