The mission of the Master of Science in Marine Sciences program is to prepare outstanding graduate students for careers or further training in science, technology and education by providing an advanced knowledge base and research skills in the marine sciences.
Our curriculum seeks to understand the way the ocean functions and how it is related to earth systems science and human interactions with the environment. You'll study the theoretical underpinnings and applications of disciplines from biology and chemistry to geology and physics, and you'll learn to apply these disciplines to solving real-world problems.
Our M.S. in Marine Sciences program also focuses on a thesis research experience in which you'll conduct research and prepare a thesis on a topic selected in consultation with a faculty advisor.
