The School of Life Sciences comprises the Department of Agricultural Sciences, the Department of Botany, the Department of Microbiology, and the Department of Zoology, all at Bundoora, and the Department of Environmental Management & Ecology at Albury-Wodonga.

The staff of the School are actively involved in many areas of research across the range of biology, from molecular to organismal to ecosystem, and this range of interests is reflected in the subjects that we teach at all levels from Undergraduate to Honours and Postgraduate studies.
