理学硕士课程包括课程和论文，可以在两年的全日制学习中完成。海洋科学系拥有60多名研究生，拥有14名全日制，1名荣誉，1名名誉和2名交叉任命的教职员工。大学外约有12名研究人员，其中许多人受雇于政府实验室（农业，渔业，林业，野生动植物），并与该系兼任职务，并作为联合主管和监督委员会成员为研究生计划做出了贡献。该系的战略目标是提供高质量的教育和培训机会，尤其是在研究生级别。我们的研究生从事各种研究领域，包括生理学，生物化学和分子生物学，生物和化学海洋学，行为和种群生态学以及水产养殖和渔业。
The MSc program involves courses and a thesis and can be completed in two years of full-time study. With over 60 graduate students, the Department of Ocean Sciences has 14 full-time, 1 Emeritus, 1 Honorary, and 2 cross-appointed faculty members. Approximately 12 researchers from outside the university, many employed in government laboratories (agriculture, fisheries, forestry, wildlife), hold adjunct appointments with the Department and contribute to the graduate program as co-supervisors and supervisory committee members. A strategic goal of the Department is to provide high-quality educational and training opportunities, particularly at the graduate level. Our graduate students are engaged in a variety of research areas including physiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology, biological and chemical oceanography, behavioural and population ecology, and aquaculture and fisheries.
