Marine Biology
College or University: University of Alaska, Fairbanks
Type of degree: M.S.
Brief overview of program: Since its establishment in 1960, the SFOS and the Institute of Marine Science has provided opportunities for graduate education to students who have previously earned baccalaureate degrees in areas of natural science. Undergraduate training in marine science is not required for admission to the program; a thorough grounding in biology or a related discipline is excellent preparation.
Degree programs leading to the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees are offered. M.S. candidates must demonstrate through course work and comprehensive examination both a broad grasp of marine science and detailed knowledge of marine biology. There are no fixed course requirements for the Ph.D., nor is a prior M.S. required. The Ph.D. is awarded for proven ability and scholarly attainment; each candidate's program is planned with his or her own advisory committee.
