Helping to research what steps your child needs to take to become a marine biologist is a good start. Showing them that you are willing to really believe in their ability and help them get there is the best way.

The location of a marine biologist is either in a aquarium, near the ocean, outdoors, or in a area that a marine biologist should be working in if they want to study oceanography. Oceanography should be studied near the ocean, not by a lake, river, nor pond an ocean.
To become a marine biologist you need a bachelor's degree for entry-level positions. However competition is fierce and good positions are usually obtained with advanced degrees. In high school you should take Earth science, biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics and a few computer science courses if you want to be successful.A person will need a master's degree and a Ph.D in order to work in marine biology. They should also be well-versed in zoology, ecosystems, and fish ecology.
To become a marine biologist, the best thing a student can do is study marine biology in an undergraduate setting. Marine biologists need to have a strong understanding of sea animals and sea plants. Marine biology is a field of study that delves into this and exposes students to the inner workings of underwater life. To increase one's chances of being hired as a marine biologist after college, a student can take on a research role in the marine biology department at an undergraduate institution. Research experience is looked upon very highly by marine biologists, as it is practical experience which applies the knowledge of marine biology. In addition, a student should try volunteering with environmental groups on campus, such as "Save the Manatees" or "Save the Whales."
A lot of math and science courses. You also need social studies and English. I personally take a foreign language. A lot of math, Physics, Chemistry, biology, advanced biology and even engineering. Other sciences can be useful too, but those are the main sciences you should take. Going above and beyond all your other core classes, can help too.
You should try and find a job that enables you to go out and work in the lab or shadow a marine biologist a day atleast thats why I am doing for my job experience! :D
To become a molecular biologist you need to have a degree in biology. It helps if you have a masters or PhD in biology. You should have interned in a related field also.
The main personality trait of a marine biologist is that they have an appreciation of marine life. They should have an observant mind, a scientific ability, have patience, be able to work in demanding and remote locations, and be able to work as part of a team.
um... I'm guessing biology!
Also should it be a bachelors, masters, or even a PH.d. What is the average salary?
Most need a Ph.D. degree in biologyIn order to become a biologist it is recommended that student should be of science background. After completing the high school student must have to register in science in order to give direction to his career in biology.
If you would like to become an animal Biologist, there are a few key things you have to study.First off, Learn English. That will help immensely. After that, you want to take Biology, Chemistry, Zoology, and (of course) Animal Biology. These will help to get you on your way.
