Opportunities

Faculty in the program engage students in research and educational opportunities spanning the world. As a student, you have the opportunity to pursue marine biology and marine biological research in tropics. Dr. Bologna has been leading research and educational trips to St. Johns Island (US Virgin Islands) since 2003. This work has yielded three papers published with students and over 12 scientific presentations. Drs. Brachfeld and Passchier have traveled to Antarctica to investigate polar sediments and students have traveled with them to pursue research. Additionally, the University has a vibrant Study Abroad Program and opportunities such as Operation Wallacea, Three Seas Program, Semester at Sea, and courses and research through the New Jersey Marine Science Consortium.
