About this programme

With over 50 graduate students, the Department of Ocean Sciences has 10 full-time, 2 Emeritus, 2 Honorary, and 2 cross-appointed faculty members. Approximately 10 researchers from outside the university, many employed in government laboratories (agriculture, fisheries, forestry, wildlife), hold adjunct appointments with the Department and contribute to the graduate program as co-supervisors and supervisory committee members. A strategic goal of the Department is to provide high-quality educational and training opportunities, particularly at the graduate level. Our graduate students are engaged in a variety of research areas including physiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology; biological and chemical oceanography; behavioural and population ecology; and aquaculture and fisheries. Graduate applicants interested in research-based programs are strongly encouraged to connect with a faculty supervisor at the time of application. The School of Graduate Studies offers advice on how to search for and contact potential supervisors . Need more help?
