Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Graduate Studies in Marine Biology and Ecology at
Florida Atlantic University / Harbor Branch Oceanogr. Inst.

 

        ***Graduate Studies in Marine Biology and Ecology at Florida
Atlantic University***

 

Florida Atlantic University is a state supported, Research I institution
with more than 20,000 students distributed across seven campuses along
Florida's southeastern coast.

 

Research on a diverse array of marine-related topics occurs at FAU's Harbor
Branch Oceanographic Institute in Ft. Pierce, and certain faculty on the
main campus (Boca Raton) and Davie campus also work in marine and estuarine
systems. FAU offers masters and doctoral degrees in biological sciences and
a masters in environmental science. These programs emphasize cutting-edge
research in extraordinary environments ranging from the poles to the
tropics, and from intertidal to deep sea habitats.  Students can focus on
ecological, genetic, and physiological studies, aquaculture of fish and
shellfish, or explore biomedical applications of extracts of 'natural
products' from marine species. Partner institutions such as Smithsonian
Marine Station, South Florida and St. Johns River Water Management
Districts, USDA, Florida Oceanographic Society, and Wild Dolphin Project
enhance the range of expertise of FAU faculty. Associations with nearby
research facilities including Scripps Florida, Max Planck Florida Institute,
and Torrey Pines Institute for Molecular Studies broaden FAU leadership in
biomedical research and training.  A cooperative institute formed with
UNC-Wilmington and NOAA also enhances the opportunities for ocean
exploration and research. RA stipends may be available (contact individual
faculty) and TA support is available at HBOI through our partnership with
Indian River State College and at the FAU Boca Raton campus.
