Environmental Biology Marine - Clarion University of Pennsylvania

Environmental Biology Marine from Clarion University of Pennsylvania is a Campus Bachelor Enviroment degree that prepares you for a Science career. Environmental Biology is the interaction of the living portion of the environment with that of its non-living components, and how human activities alter these interactions. As a field of study, it is interdisciplinary in nature and requires broad training in such areas as Earth Science, Geology, and Chemistry in conjunction with Biology. Although the degree track involves coursework in Biology , Earth Science, Geology, Chemistry, and Mathematics,it is structured in such a way that hands-on, field-based learning is emphasized. Our philosophy in designing the degree was to insure that students be able to apply the knowledge gained in classes to "real world" situations. This is enhanced by the requirement of a field experience competency in which the student completes field-based classes, conducts independent research, or completes an internship. The Environmental Biology Degree is designed to allow the student a number of concentration options. One of these is in Marine Biology . This particular option is available through Clarion University's membership in the Marine Science Consortium at Wallops Island, Virginia. This consortium, comprised of 16 colleges and universities, offers students a wide array of field-oriented courses in marine biology. Of course, a student can pursue a general Environmental Biology degree and simply select electives from these three areas of concentration. View more details on Clarion University of Pennsylvania .
