AbstractThe undergraduate degree in Environmental Science at Murdoch University has been a 14 year experiment in providing a new kind of disciplinary training and profession. Some achievements are examined and possible directions for the future reviewed.This paper is about an experiment in environmental education in Western Australia - the establishment of an undergraduate degree in Environmental Science. The experiment has hardly been discussed before, mainly because the experiment was still going on, but 1989 represents a new phase of that experiment after the retirement of the Foundation Professor Des O'Connor. Some perspective is thus attempted on its achievements and possible directions for the future are examined.It has been an important experiment because there are very few places in Australia or overseas where there has been such a commitment and vision to seeking solutions to environmental problems through education. This is mainly because there are not many places where a new University has been founded in the past 15 years with Environmental Science as a foundation discipline.
