Marine Biology


College or University: University of Alaska, Southeast

Type of degree: B.S.

Brief overview of program: UAS offers a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology and Marine Biology. A Bachlor of Arts degree in Biology will soon be available. Students learn biological principles and skills in lecture, laboratory, and field courses, with an emphasis on involvement in research projects. The program is composed of full time faculty actively involved in a wide range of disciplines including marine ecology, marine mammalogy, phycology, comparative physiology, neurobiology, population genetics and conservation biology. The location of the university provides students with a natural laboratory that includes extensive marine habitat, rainforest, wetlands, and ice fields -- all within walking distance of the classrooms. A small student-to-professor ratio ensures a more personal approach to learning than is possible at larger universities.
