Why is the Institute of Aquaculture offering a degree in Marine Biology?
The Institute of Aquaculture has an excellent world wide reputation in the fields of aquaculture and aquatic science. With a highly skilled and expert team of scientists with well equiped state-of-the-art laboratories, many of the skills needed to work in the respective fields of science are common between Marine Biology and Aquaculture. Many of our staff have themselves studied Marine Biology and decided later to specialise in one of the disciplines that makes up what is called Aquaculture. The Institute is a very well equipped department, with excellent teaching facilities, tropical and freshwater aquaria and marine and freshwater external facilities, all available to support the study of Marine Biology. The Institute is therefore well placed to offer a Marine Biology degree.
