Biology-Marine Emphsis

Western Washington University - Bellingham
he Marine Biology concentration provides a strong and broad foundational education in the lives of organisms inhabiting marine environments. The concentration is anchored by an ecology lab course that helps build skills in field-based research, data analysis, and scientific communication, preparing you for advanced coursework, and for conducting independent studies in faculty research labs. You will also take two additional courses associated with the Marine Biology concentration, including another 300- or 400-level lab. Because Marine Biology concentrates on a particular environment, rather than a type of organism or research sub-discipline, the kind of research questions that you will be equipped to ask by the time you graduate is bound only by your interests - from the ecology, physiology, or population genetics of marine organisms to the community ecology of a marine habitat.<p>&nbsp;</p>
