Overview

The School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences has an outstanding reputation for quality research both within Australia and internationally. Research within BEES is clustered within two general thematic areas ; Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and Environmental Change and Sustainability. Within these two themes there are four focal points for research, which are described in more detail below: 1) Water and Sustainable Ecosystems; 2) Vertebrate Ecology and Conservation; 3) Temperate Marine Ecosystems, and; 4) Spatial Information Systems. Other areas of research interest within the School include resource management and a diversity of interests within the biological and earth sciences. BEES attracts over $2.5 M in external research finding, both via competitive funding from the Australian Research Council and a diversity of additional sources of basic and applied funding. Our research is strongly linked and enhanced by relationships with a number of associated research centres, including the:

No matter where in New Zealand you live, you live on an island. The health of the ocean, the health of the land, and our health are all linked.

    http://www.uct.ac.za/depts/zoology/docs/marine.html
    University of Cape Town MARINE BIOLOGY The University of Cape Town has a long and proud tradition as a centre for marine research and for the training of marine scienctists. Over 100 marine scientists work in the Departments of Botany , Chemistry, Engineering, Environmental and Geographical Science , Geological Sciences, Oceanography , Surveying and Zoology, many of them full-time researchers sponsored by outside funding organisations. Oceanography is the general term applied to the scientific study of the sea. Marine Biology, Marine Geoscience, Physical Oceanography, Marine Chemistry, Coastal Engineering and Sea Surveying are all thus specialisations within the general field of Oceanography. All marine related activities at UCT are co-ordinated within the School of Marine Science The University of Cape Town does not offer a major degree specialising in Marine Biology (in fact no such degree is available in South Africa). It is however possible to structure an undergraduate curriculum that emphasises marine studies in the senior years of a BSc whilst majoring in Zoology, Botany or Ocean and Atmospheric Science. A senior half-course in Marine Ecology is also offered at third or fourth year (

    72. Careers In Oceanography & Marine Biology
    career in oceanography or marine biology, you should chemistry, earth science, biology,physics, computer from research to environmental protection activities.
    http://www.uncwil.edu/nurc/aquarius/career.htm
    • Links to information about careers in marine biology and oceanography.
    • Oceanographers apply basic sciences to studies of the sea, its contents and the surrounding environment. They are chemists, physicists, biologists and geologists who bring their special skills to ocean studies. They collaborate with one another and with engineers and social scientists on complex, challenging issues as they expand our knowledge of the ocean. They work in laboratories ashore, on ships, in submersibles and from underwater facilities like Aquarius.
    • Possible career areas include:
      • Biological oceanographers, marine biologists and fisheries scientists
      • Chemical oceanographers and marine geochemists
      • Geological oceanographers and geophysicists
      • Physical oceanographers
      • Marine and ocean engineers
      • Marine policy experts
    • Jobs are found in research and development, resource management, education and training, regulation enforcement, environmental monitoring and protection and advisory services. Approximately 50 percent of jobs are with federal or state governments, 40 percent are in education and the remainder are in private industries and nonprofit organizations.
    • If you're thinking about a career in oceanography or marine biology, you should enroll in as many chemistry, earth science, biology, physics, computer science and mathematics classes as possible, both in high school and college. Educational requirements vary from a high school education to college undergraduate and graduate degrees.

    Master Program
    The objectives of the Master Program are:
    • To begin the student in the research of the Marine and Limnological Sciences, To provide him a solid interdisciplinary formation in these fields, To form it for teaching, and To fully develop their capacity to the professional exercise related with the aquatic resources and their use.
    Academic activities Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the study of the aquatic systems and their frontiers, the program includes four basic subjects, they offer the student an integral vision of the processes of the ocean and the aquatic systems in general. This interdisciplinary focus provides to the future researchers a common formation that will allow them to establish the necessary collaboration between specialists of the different areas of the Marine and Limnological Sciences. The basic subjects are selected according to the particular student's interests, configuring his or her specific basic formation to the investigation project and their future specialty. Each one have a value of 8 credits, and with them they will cover a total of 32 credits. The basic subjects are:

    38. But not every leisured aristocrat becomes bored and demoralized. For example, the emperor Hirohito, instead of sinking into decadent hedonism, devoted himself to marine biology, a field in which he became distinguished. When people do not have to exert themselves to satisfy their physical needs they often set up artificial goals for themselves. In many cases they then pursue these goals with the same energy and emotional involvement that they otherwise would have put into the search for physical necessities. Thus the aristocrats of the Roman Empire had their literary pretensions; many European aristocrats a few centuries ago invested tremendous time and energy in hunting, though they certainly didn't need the meat; other aristocracies have competed for status through elaborate displays of wealth; and a few aristocrats, like Hirohito, have turned to science.
