Marine Biology (BA/BS or MS)

The University of Oregon now offers a baccalaureate degree in Marine Biology through the Oregon Institute of Marine Biology in Charleston, Oregon. CLICK HERE for more information.

The University's marine biology station at Charleston is an ideal location for the study of marine systems. Many habitats are within easy reach of the laboratory. To the north are over 40 miles of sandy beaches, and to the south are extensive rocky shores. The laboratory is at the entrance of Coos bay, and estuarine and open ocean habitats are only minutes away. OIMB is adjacent to the South Slough National Estuarine Research Reserve. Fall term courses take advantage of these opportunities. Classes are small with a maximum of 24 students and are designed for juniors and seniors and first year graduate students. Field trips and lab activities are emphasized. The courses fulfill requirements for undergraduates majoring in biology, general science, environmental science, and environmental studies. All students must have completed either BI 211-213 or BI 261-264 or an equivalent to attend the spring terms at OIMB. For additional information about courses and programs, check out OIMB on the web at www.uoregon.edu/~oimb.
