MSci Marine Biology and Oceanography
Course Overview
This four-year integrated Master's degree offers a comprehensive exploration of the biological, chemical, and physical processes that govern marine ecosystems, from coastal estuaries to the deep ocean. You will develop a deep understanding of marine life and the fundamental processes that connect the atmosphere, ocean, and seafloor, culminating in a substantial research project in your final year. The course also provides flexible pathways, including opportunities for a placement or international experience year to enhance your learning.
Key Program Highlights
- Integrated Master's program providing an in-depth, interdisciplinary study of marine science
- Final year dedicated to an advanced, substantial research project and dissertation
- Study marine life at all scales, from microbial processes to large marine mammals
- Options to transfer to a pathway with a professional Placement Year or International Experience Year
- Strong foundation in the core physical and biogeochemical processes shaping marine habitats
