SCRIPPS ANNOUNCES JANUARY 31, 2006 APPLICATION DEADLINE FOR MASTER'S
DEGREE IN MARINE BIODIVERSITY AND CONSERVATION
The Center for Marine Biodiversity and Conservation (CMBC) at Scripps
Institution of
Oceanography announces an application deadline of 31 January 2006 for
the Master of Advanced Studies in Marine Biodiversity and Conservation.
Offered in cooperation with the University of California, San Diego's
(UCSD) Office of Graduate Studies and Research and UCSD Extension's
Office of Advanced Professional Education, the multidisciplinary program
includes courses in natural, social, and informatics; marine policy,
economics, and law; and training in important cultural and
communications skills. The well-rounded curriculum prepares early to
mid-career professionals for effectively dealing with diverse
stakeholders, complex solutions, and the interdisciplinary science often
involved in biodiversity and conservation efforts. Students complete the
degree in one calendar year. Courses and fieldwork are led by professors
from Scripps's CMBC, the UCSD departments of economics and political
science, and the UCSD Graduate School of International Relations and
Pacific Studies. The World Wildlife Fund, National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration's Southwest Fisheries Science Center and
other government and non-government agencies enhance the program by
providing special lectures and discussions. No more than 12 master's
students are admitted to the program each year. More information,
including an online application, is available on the web at
http://oaped.ucsd.edu/cmbc/ and also 858-822-2886 / jweinzierl at ucsd.edu.
