How much money do a marine scientifist or zoologist make per year?
It all depends on one’s advanced degree. Folks with a bachelors will earn less than those with a master’s degree. A Ph.D. earns more. Figure a zookeeper earns about 26,000 to a high of 62,000 (or even more) depending on experience and location. Marine Biologists with PhD degree should earn low 50’s to high 80s. If anyone publishes a textbook, they could earn additional money. A full professor of zoology with 25 years experience at a leading college or university probably earns between 78,000 to a high of 105,000, depending on school’s location, title of professor, honors received, etc.
