在这里学什么？

Marine, estuarine and freshwater biology is a wide-ranging discipline that covers everything from the smallest aquatic microbes to whales, as well as emerging opportunities in shellfish, fish and seaweed farming. The program builds on a core curriculum in math, chemistry, physics and biology, and branches out into the aquatic sciences. Students specialize in their own areas of interest, preparing for exciting careers in fields including research, teaching, conservation, fisheries and aquaculture.

State-of-the-art facilities, hands-on learning with an emphasis on undergraduate student research, and an incredible location make UNH the perfect place to study marine, estuarine and freshwater biology. The university is close to the New Hampshire Seacoast, the Lakes Region and the White Mountain National Forest, providing endless opportunities to study aquatic organisms and ecosystems. UNH has aquaculture facilities and coastal and estuarine research laboratories. Together with Cornell University, it administers the summer undergraduate programs at the Shoals Marine Laboratory on Apple Dore Island off the coast of New Hampshire and Maine.

Program Objectives

The Major in Marine, Estuarine and Freshwater Biology is intended to give students interested in the fields of marine and freshwater biology the background to pursue careers, including potential advanced study, in this area of biology. The major builds on a broad set of basic scientific courses represented by a core curriculum in math, chemistry, physics and biology. The background in basic science is combined with a series of required and elective courses in the aquatic sciences from watershed to ocean. The goal is to provide a solid foundation of knowledge in freshwater, estuarine and marine biology while having the flexibility to focus on particular areas of scientific interest from molecular biology to ecosystem studies. Students will have the opportunity to specialize in areas of their own interest, such as aquaculture and fisheries, animal behavior or ecological restoration.
