Marine Biology Web Page
Introduction:
Below are a number of colleges and universities that have programs designed to train college students in marine biology. Keep in mind, however, that you may profit equally and, maybe even more in some cases, by finding an excellent college that has no particular specialization in marine biology. If you get a sound biology education and complement it with summer marine station courses and perhaps an internship, you will prepare yourself well for a career in marine biology. Remember, it is often better to get a basic science and humanities education than to specialize early. Learning to think broadly may, in the end, help you to see relationships that a specialized education may never afford. Despite these caveats, there are good programs around that do both. I cannot broadly endorse or recommend against any of the ones below, but if you have specific questions, I may be able to answer them.
