Associate Degree in Land Economy

Land Economy is the study of the use, development and management of the environment, land and other natural resources. At its core, it has the disciplines of Law and Economics and their application to the environment, broadly defined. Drawing primarily on theories and concepts from Economics and Law, students analyse how the private and public sector allocates resources, what implications this has for society and the environment, and why and how governments seek to affect individuals and companies and other countries. Though the analysis concentrates on economically advanced countries, there are significant opportunities to examine less developed countries and regions.
