Marine environment

Oceans cover three quarters of the Earth’s surface. They drive the global systems that make the planet habitable, impacting rainfall, drinking water, weather patterns, coastlines, much of our food, and even the air we breathe. More than three billion people around the world depend on marine and coastal environments for their livelihoods.  

Conserving and sustainably using our oceans, seas and marine resources, is essential for ensuring a healthier future for all life on earth.

We offer three programmes allowing you to specialise in a specific area of marine conservation. You will be able to explore the relationships between coastal and marine ecosystems and human activity, examine how environmental sustainability can be achieved while improving social wellbeing and resilience of coastal communities, and learn how to protect marine vertebrate populations.
