Are you passionate about ocean health and marine ecosystems? Our Marine Science degree provides an integrated exploration of the biological, physical, and chemical elements of coasts and oceans. It encompasses marine biology, ecology, geology, maritime archaeology, ocean engineering, and the oceans' roles as economic resources and climate regulators. Oceans offer opportunities for sustainable development through renewable energy, carbon sequestration, and responsible fishing. The Blue Economy, valued at €566 billion in 2018 and supporting 3.5 million jobs in Europe, continues to grow.As the global population rises from 7.6 billion in 2018 to an estimated 11 billion by 2100, with most people living near coasts, society urgently needs interdisciplinary STEM graduates to address environmental challenges. Our program combines theoretical, practical, and field-based approaches at our Coleraine campus on the stunning Causeway Coast. Career prospects span public and private sectors, including oceanography, coastal engineering, hydrographic surveying, fisheries science, marine geology, and conservation.
