Renenet, did you end up deciding on a course? In QLD or VIC? I am curious to know what you end up deciding on, as l am also seriously considering doing a science degree as a mature age student. I will be applying to study Bachelor of Science in Wildlife and Conservation Biology next year at Deakin University, in Burwood, Melbourne. This course is apparently very hands on with lots of field trips and wildlife related subject matter. It has always been my dream to work with wildlife and l kind of regretted dropping out of a Biological Science degree when l was younger. So l thought if l don't try now, I'll never do it
