Doctorado en Asuntos Marinos

The world’s coastal regions have become trendy places to live and visit. Our coasts and oceans are also immensely important ecologically and economically. Our coasts and oceans, however, are particularly vulnerable to overuse and climate changes.

Marine Affairs provides students with an interdisciplinary education in the ocean and coastal management. Consequently, we face major management issues locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally. The degree in Marine Affairs' primary objective is to educate students in the interdisciplinary analysis needed for effective marine and coastal management.

We strive for excellence in teaching, research, and service. We prepare our students with the skills, knowledge, and insight to address today’s world's challenges and support their development as lifelong learners. We foster collaboration among our undergraduate and graduate students, staff, and faculty in experiential learning and provide opportunities for students to apply their knowledge beyond the University.

We address contemporary problems through innovative, relevant, and scholarly research. We extend our research-based knowledge through community engagement in our Land Grant and Sea Grant heritage tradition. We are dedicated to outreach and service to our state, national, and global community.
