Cornell offers many undergraduate courses in marine science. Undergraduates are encouraged to consider: (1) undergraduate specialization in Marine Biology (through Ecology and Evolutionary Biology); (2) undergraduate specialization in Ocean Sciences (through the Science of Earth Systems Program); and (3) other summer courses offered by the Shoals Marine Laboratory (SML), Cornell’s field station on Appledore Island, Maine. For the most current information on all three of these options, visit SML online at: www.sml.cornell.edu.

1. Undergraduate Specialization in Marine Biology (through Ecology and Evolutionary Biology):
Biological Sciences majors in the ecology and evolutionary biology concentration can specialize in marine biology; this allows a focus on the biology of marine organisms. In addition to fulfilling major requirements and requirements for the ecology and evolutionary biology concentration, students specializing in marine biology should enroll in one or more of the following courses: BIOSM Courses:
See BIOSM courses that are 3000 or 4000 level. Contact SML with questions: (607) 255-3717 or shoals-lab@cornell.edu 2. Undergraduate Specialization in Ocean Sciences (through the Science of Earth Systems Program):
Science of Earth Systems majors can specialize in ocean sciences to study interactions of biological, chemical, geological, and physical processes in the ocean. Students specializing in ocean sciences are required to take four courses from the following list: BIOSM and SEA Courses:
SEA courses must be taken concurrently. This program is run by SEA Education Association (SEA) in Woods Hole, Massachusetts. Contact SEA at (800) 552-3633 and see www.sea.edu. Can use one of the following organismal courses:
