Forestry at USC consists of two research centres: Forest Industries Research Centre (FIRC) and the Tropical Forests and People Research Centre (TFPRC). There are no degrees other than PhD offered.
This guide has been created to connect the USC Library to the PhD students and teams of researchers in our two forestry-based research centres. The content is to communicate what resources the Library already has in place, plus a list of relevant websites.
The HDR checklist is designed to remind the PhD students of some of the tasks they may want to complete as part of their researcher training.

The USC Herbarium collection forms the basis for a reference collection of plants growing in our region and provides a significant resource for the University of the Sunshine Coast and regional community. Work conducted on the collation and recording of this collection is being undertaken by USC staff and students.
The collection consists of around 10,000 plant specimens, some dating back to the 1940s, and provides a valuable historical record of plant distributions. It also includes plant specimens donated by the Queensland Forestry Research Institute.
The Herbarium is being digitized and uploaded to the Virtual Herbarium which complements the existing physical collection, making it more accessible to the community.
The physical Herbarium is located on Level 1 of the USC Sunshine Coast Library in a purpose-designed room. The Virtual Herbarium can also be found through Research Data Australia.
