MSci Marine Biology

... United Kingdom
... Bangor University

Course Overview

This 4 year degree will follow the same course structure as the Marine Biology BSc. In the 4th year you will specialise and carry out a substantial research project. You will be able to work in a staff member’s research group and will gain valuable research experience of working in a research environment.

Marine Biology is the study of organisms that occupy 95% of the biosphere of our planet, living in conditions ranging from the polar seas (below -2℃) to hydrothermal vents (greater than 100℃). We are increasingly aware of the value of marine organisms for their role in influencing and indicating changes in our climate, for food, medicine and other products. The majority of the worlds species are found in the oceans; and range from the smallest micro-organism on the planet to the largest invertebrates such as giant squid and mammals like the blue whale. This very popular course allows you to study the fundamental aspects of the biology of marine life as well as more specialised aspects such as aquaculture, fisheries and marine biotechnology.

We are one of the largest university centres teaching marine sciences in the UK and among the biggest in Europe.
