The Interdepartmental Graduate Program in Marine Science (IGPMS) offers comprehensive interdisciplinary education for both Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. Marine science integrates multiple fields such as biology, geology, chemistry, physics, and engineering. Our program acknowledges the inherently cross-disciplinary approach required in contemporary marine science, fostering collaboration among marine faculty from eight distinct departments. Students develop expertise through focused study areas: biological, chemical, and physical oceanography; marine optics and remote sensing; marine geology and geophysics; marine biology; paleoceanography; ocean engineering; and marine policy - all available within the IGPMS curriculum.
