The College of Marine & Earth Studies (CMES) has many valuable resources that facilitate world-class research, instruction and discovery. While our facilities are state of the art, we believe that our MOST valuable assets are the people that make up the CMES team.
In addition to our faculty and research scientists, the CMES team consists of our undergraduate and graduate students, as well as our administration and staff, all of whom do their part to support the work done at CMES. Much like the way the ocean and earth systems interact, our strength at CMES is in our collaborative working environment.
