Are you interested in marine biology at the University of Washington (UW)? We currently offer a three-course series that gives students a strong background in the field of Marine Biology. In addition to studying the flora and fauna found in the marine environment, students can gain valuable field experience through field trips and projects. The course series—taught by faculty from the School of Aquatic & Fisheries Sciences (SAFS), Oceanography, and Marine Affairs—gives students an interdisciplinary background in marine biology.

The UW has many opportunities for students to explore the marine environment in traditional courses and through experiential learning programs at our Friday Harbor Laboratory and Alaska Field Station. Undergraduate students interested in studying marine biology at the UW can get a degree from SAFS, Oceanography, and/or the Biology Department. As the Marine Biology Program develops, we hope to bring more options to undergraduate students interested in a career in marine biology.
