An Immersive Marine Biology Experience

Explore marine biodiversity in the field, offshore on a research vessel, and up close in the lab at the Oregon Institute of Marine Biology. This class will be an immersive, intensive experience.

Using scientific tools to get to know them better, we’ll see benthic and planktonic marine organisms, pelagic and shore birds, as well as marine mammals.

You’ll also learn about ecological and oceanographic processes influencing the form, function, and survival of marine species. Join us as we discuss uses of marine resources by local communities, coastal tribes, and wildlife.
