Marine Science is a well-rounded and multi-disciplinary program which has been carefully designed to take full advantage of the unique variety of marine environments available for study around the island of Hawaiʻi. Introductory lecture and laboratory courses in general oceanography and marine biology are followed by intermediate-level courses in marine ecology, marine monitoring techniques, and statistical applications in marine science. The most advanced level of the program is composed of specialized courses in geological, chemical, physical, and biological oceanography. The program culminates in a student’s choice of one of three capstone sequences: (a) Senior Thesis, a research sequence involving proposal writing, library research, field data collection, laboratory work, computer analysis of data, report writing, and oral presentation; (b) Senior Internship, a sequence providing students the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills in an agency or organization involved in marine science education or research; or (c) Senior Seminar, a sequence involving discussion, critique, and presentation of marine science-oriented seminars, and grant proposal writing.
