Courses
A broad overview of fishery management objectives, strategies and tactics. A detailed review of best practices for achieving sustainable fisheries, performance evaluation and optimal yield for achieving resource conservation and socio-economic utilities will be developed through lectures and student assignments. Current initiatives such as ecosystem approaches, risk-based management and management strategy evaluation will also be introduced. Lectures will be based on theory and application to real-world case studies.
Seminar discussions and presentations based on research or detailed literature surveys.
