Overview

The Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS)'s Marine Science with Oceanography and Robotics programme is the only such programme available in the UK. Given that robotics is a rapidly growing industry this new stream will provide some of the skilled graduates this sector requires.

Students will initially register for the Marine Science BSc programme and can, through selection of a specific range of modules, choose to graduate with this dedicated exit qualification. Like the Arctic Studies stream students can revert back to the core degree at any point during their studies as long as they maintain the multidisciplinary balance of the programme when choosing elective modules. The course is taught by a combination of face-to-face teaching and self study.
