AQUACULTURE & AQUATIC STUDIES
GET YOUR MASTERS OF SCIENCE IN
Aquaculture is the fastest growing food producing activity in the world and now produces over 50% of the world's seafood. Students with the Master of Science in Aquaculture and Aquatic Studies have gone on to further graduate studies or directly into employment in state and federal hatcheries, environmental agencies, commercial aquaculture farms, and associated industries such as feed and equipment sales.
This program offers two degree options: the thesis option is for students wishing to pursue further graduate work or who are planning to work in technical aspects of industries, especially involving research. The non-thesis option is geared to students who plan to engage in commercial production, state or federal hatcheries, or for those for whom this will be their terminal degree.
