BLY 583 - Field Marine Science I

Institution:

University of South Alabama

Subject:

Biology

Description:

The Field Marine Science course will consist of an 8 - 12 day field exercise in representative coastal sites. The field exercise is conducted in the term break prior to the term of registration for the course. Faculty members with diverse interests will accompany the students, participate in pre-trip discussions and evaluate the product developed by each student. The course is designed to familiarize students with habitats and research conditions different from those they experience on the Northern Gulf Coast. Field trip locations are selected on the basis of faculty and student interest, economics, and availability of logistical support. Students pay their room and board costs for the field exercise. The course is primarily for graduate students, but advanced undergraduates may enroll with consent of instructor. Both BLY 483/583 and 488/588 may be taken for credit when each is taught in a different environment.
