Bloomsburg University - Biology knowledge, perspective and experience of teachers of biology in secondary schools. usethis facility to take graduatelevel courses in marine biology or to http://www.bloomu.edu/academic/bio/
Extractions: General Information The study of living systems prepares students for an exciting variety of professions. Bloomsburg University graduates who major in the biological and allied health sciences find employment in a wide spectrum of careers or continue with their studies in professional school or graduate school. Many enter the work force as allied health professionals, as laboratory or field technicians, or as teachers. They work in private industry, research centers, health care facilities and government agencies. The Department of Biological and Allied Health Sciences offers a small school's personal attention while providing a large school's opportunities. Since upper-level class size averages between 12 and 15 students, there is ample opportunity for individualized interaction between faculty and students and for hands-on experience. Opportunities for independent studies and internships are also available. Each of the 18 full-time and one part-time faculty holds a Ph.D. The areas of faculty specialization include animal behavior, animal physiology, botany, cell biology, development, ecology, environmental microbiology, exercise, physiology, genetics, herpetology, human genetics, immunology, marine biology, medical microbiology, molecular biology, mycology, parasitology, plant pathology, plant physiology and plant systematics. The collective experiences and training of the faculty afford each student the opportunity to develop under a highly competent tutelage.

Extractions: ...the science of life All living organisms are the basic concern of biology. Biologists are interested in how living things begin, how they develop, how they function, and where they are found. The Biology Program at Oregon State University brings together faculty and subject matter from all the specialized departments within the biological sciencesfrom botany, the study of plants; from zoology, the study of animals; from microbiology, the study of minute organisms; from biochemistry and biophysics, the chemical and physical basis of life; and from entomology, the study of insects. The Biology Program provides students with broad but rigorous coursework in the life sciences. Career Opportunities in Biology Biology is basic to many disciplines and professions. It offers career opportunities in government agencies, business firms, and industry. An undergraduate biology major also receives excellent preparation for graduate school or one of the professional schools, such as medicine, dentistry, optometry, or veterinary medicine. Biologists work in food production, in medicine, with regulatory agencies, and with public and private groups concerned about the environment. Others teach or do research, or both. Some recent OSU biology graduates are employed as: biological researcher naturalists aquatic ecologists physicians veterinarians dentists environmental consultants sales representatives for pharmaceutical or publishing companies teacher in high schools, community colleges, and universities

Extractions: This situation depends on what school you are transferring to. The general education credit hours you earn at OCCC will transfer to other schools because the college and its courses are accredited through the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges. Since some classes may not have an equivalent course at your transfer school, these credits would likely be credited as undergraduate electives. Some may not transfer see the college advisor for more detailed questions. The program is designed to provide instruction and student opportunities to learn aquatic animal husbandry skills. These skills can be marketed to a number of organizations such as public aquariums, research groups, fish hatcheries, aquaculture production facilities, ornamental fish trade including retail, wholesale or fish farm production levels. One could also use their skills to create an aquarium maintenance business.
Ocean.com - Everything Ocean Although many good schools offer bachelor degrees in marine biology, it related courses,and pursue semesters abroad and summer courses in marine biology. http://www.ocean.com/Library/AskQuestions/200111.asp
Extractions: From Simone, Chicago IL Marine Biology Schools I f you want to become a marine biologist, my suggestion would be to get a college degree in biology. Although many good schools offer bachelor degrees in marine biology, it is better to get a good basis in ecological science, as well as chemistry, and then pursue a masters or PhD in marine biology. During college, you should take marine-related courses, and pursue semesters abroad and summer courses in marine biology. You should also probably get certified as a scuba diver at some point. It's really fun and helps a lot when you are doing research underwater.

Extractions: PROPOSE JOINT USE OF FORT JOHNSON PROPERTY Fort Johnson Site Planned As Joint Facility Of College of Charleston And Medical College of S. C. News and Courier, March 21, 1954 Use of Fort Johnson on a joint basis by the College of Charleston and the Medical College of South Carolina was proposed here yesterday. Plans were discussed for use of half of the site by the College of Charleston, in co-operation with other Southeastern region schools, and use of the other half by the medical college as an animal research farm. Announcement was made at a luncheon meeting in the Fort Sumter Hotel that the two Charleston schools have filed joint applications for the site. The applications were made to Mrs. Oveta Culp Hobby, federal secretary for health, education and welfare. As surplus government property, the former quarantine station is now under Mrs. Hobby's jurisdiction. Officials of the two local Colleges and representatives of schools interested in establishment of a marine biological research station and marine biological summer school toured the area a 97-acre site on James Island. Under the program outlined here, the medical college would transfer its present animal colony from quarters a-top a wing of the college to the James Island site. The wooded, and fairly secluded area, would permit enlargement of the colony and a widening of the medical school's research program Dr. Kenneth M. Lynch, president of the college, stated in his application.

Strategies and Initiatives Tools for Transformation Funded Proposals The Pacific is our largest ocean, the cradle of marine diversity, and the source of most of the world's seafood. At the edge of the Pacific, the University of Washington is the pre-eminent teaching and research institution in the Pacific Northwest, with many departments, programs, schools, and colleges devoted, in whole or in part, to the study of marine systems. Three new courses in Marine Biology will be offered beginning in the 2001-2002 academic year. Each course will explore physical, biological, and social dimensions of the marine realm. All courses will expose students to the sea in lectures, laboratories, and field excursions. While the Fall quarter will be open to all students (with a separate honors section), the Winter and Spring quarters will be honors only. Students will receive a broad overview in the Fall, delve into the physical-biological linkages that define marine organisms and their communities in the Winter, and experience the marine environment firsthand in the Spring. Fall Quarter: Marine Biology FISH/OCEAN 250 Blending descriptive marine biology with field trips; readings from the Web, primary literature, and newspaper clippings; and discussion, the goal of the Fall quarter class will be to define the place of marine biology and ocean research within socioeconomic drivers such as the need for and success of current aquatic natural resource management programs. Labs for this course will include one mandatory field trip, active teaming, computer analysis of existing data sets, and guest-speaker led examination of specific ethical and scientific issues in Pacific Northwest marine biology.
