What are the top schools that teach about marine biology?

Harvard, Cornell and Duke all offer Marine Biology tracks or specialization. If you can get into an Ivy League school, go there for biology even if they don't have a degree program. For schools that specialize in marine biology: University of Miami, University of Texas Austin, Boston University, Berkley, UC Santa Barbara, and University of Washington all offer top notch programs. However, getting a BS in Marine Biology isn't going to land you a career. You'll need a graduate degree to do research. It might be better to go to a school with a good biology program, and get marine biology experience over the summer (like at the local aquarium, or down in Florida/Texas with a summer research program). Be sure to get boating and SCUBA experience, as well. Then your good background in undergraduate biology, along with these summer experiences, will make you a good candidate for graduate school.


How do you get in a marine biology program?

You must have a strong love for marine environments and be ready to work very hard. The field is very competitive and you must know that marine sciences is what you want to do. Taking marine based classes, swimming, and scuba are a few steps towards becoming a marine biology.

You can get basic classes in biology, math and chemistry at any college but you will have to transfer to a college that offers such a degree later. If you are in high-school take classes in chemistry and biology and some math as preparation for such a degree.
