Master S Degree Marine Science

The Master’s Degree in Marine Science via distance learning emphasizes the principles that govern the oceans, sea currents, water composition, and marine life. It covers physical, geological, and chemical oceanography, and how these relate to marine ecosystems. The course also addresses how organisms interact within marine ecosystems, including human activity impacts on oceans, pollution, oceanic dead zones, and coral reefs.
