Introduction

Saint Joseph’s is the only liberal arts college in Maine and one of the few small colleges in the Northeast that offers a major in marine science.

Through independent study, internships, and senior research, students work on important local issues. From cataloguing the diversity of Gulf of Maine waters to studying the causes and effects of red tide outbreaks, or researching how the chemical environments affect juvenile clam survival (crucial to proper fishery management), the marine science program is making a difference today and developing the scientists and leaders of tomorrow.
