Introduction

The ocean sustains communities and livelihoods, controls climate, serves as a highway for global commerce, represents a potential energy source and provides recreation and inspiration. It is also at risk, as climate change, pollution and other human activities take their toll. To tackle these problems, future leaders and policy makers will need a broad background in both natural and social sciences.

Established in 1974, the Marine Resource Management (MRM) program is a science-based, interdisciplinary master's program that will provide you with the necessary tools to become an effective and creative marine resource management professional.

Your MRM degree will include oceanography coursework to provide a strong scientific foundation for understanding our oceans and coasts, as well as courses in natural and social sciences.
