CMES Graduate students are expected to think broadly about their work and its implications for society.
Degree Programs
In addition to advanced work in the area of their specialty, graduate students in the college are expected to think broadly about their work and its implications for society. Courses outside the student's specialty ensure a well-rounded background. In addition to formal course work, you'll have the opportunity to conduct research on critical marine and earth issues under the guidance of distinguished faculty.
As a graduate student in the College of Marine & Earth Studies, you may undertake one of the following graduate degree programs:
- Geology (M.S. & Ph.D.)
- Master of Marine Management (M.M.M.)
- Master of Marine Policy (M.M.P.)
- Marine Studies (M.S. & Ph.D.)
- Ocean Engineering (M.S. & Ph.D.)
- Oceanography (Ph.D.)
Financial Support
Most of our students are supported by research assistantships that provide hands-on experience in addition to financial aid. A significant number of competitive scholarships and fellowships are also available to qualified students, and travel support often is provided for national meetings to allow students to network with others in the field.
