Overview

Marine Biology is the study of the organisms that reside in the world’s ocean environments. Marine ecosystems cover more than seventy percent of the Earth’s surface, and the diversity of life that exists in these environments is astounding.

The marine biology major allows students to explore the variety of life in the world’s oceans, estuaries, and coral reefs. Graduates of this program are well prepared to enter marine biology graduate programs or gain employment as marine scientists with county, state, and federal agencies, aquaria/museums, universities, and private marine organizations or consulting firms.
