The SEA Quest high school seminars are fun, inclusive, and engaging. We meet twice a day online for two weeks. Together we work with real marine science data, learn research methods, practice writing and illustration skills, discuss opportunities and strategies for activism, and learn and network in active, small groups with like-minded students who are thousands of miles away from you while lightening our carbon footprint. In a small group setting, we meet and learn alongside active experts in their fields: marine scientists, science writers, environmental historians, and a captain from the US Coast Guard.
This two-week summer program for high school students, including graduating seniors, is centered on learning by doing, SEA Expedition is a multidisciplinary experience that welcomes students to participate in every aspect of a challenging offshore sailing and oceanographic expedition, and occurs entirely aboard the SSV Corwith Cramer. The Semester at WHOI is offered in the fall semester for juniors or seniors majoring in science, engineering or mathematics.
The program features coursework in ocean science and a semester-long research project advised by a WHOI scientist or engineer. The Summer Student Fellow program brings bright, talented students to Woods Hole to learn more about ocean science, attend lectures by Woods Hole scientists, and conduct independent research working alongside world-class scientists.
CC-CREW is a paid, non-residential summer research experience for community college students to work in a science lab, participate in research, receive mentoring, and get exposure to the many STEM careers a research institution like WHOI has to offer. Information about careers in oceanography and other undergraduate student research opportunities. He uses techniques that span isotope geochemistry, next generation DNA sequencing, and satellite tagging to study the ecology of a wide variety of ocean species.
He recently discovered that blue sharks use warm water ocean tunnels, or eddies, to dive to the ocean twilight zone, where they forage in nutrient-rich waters hundreds of meters down.
Born in New Zealand, Simon received his B. With much of his work in the South Pacific and Caribbean, Simon has been on many cruises, logging 1, hours of scuba diving and hours in tropical environs. He has been a scientist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution since Gregory Skomal is an accomplished marine biologist, underwater explorer, photographer, and author.
He has been a fisheries scientist with the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries since and currently heads up the Massachusetts Shark Research Program.
For more than 30 years, Greg has been actively involved in the study of life history, ecology, and physiology of sharks. His shark research has spanned the globe from the frigid waters of the Arctic Circle to coral reefs in the tropical Central Pacific.
Much of his current research centers on the use of acoustic telemetry and satellite-based tagging technology to study the ecology and behavior of sharks. He has written dozens of scientific research papers and has appeared in a number of film and television documentaries, including programs for National Geographic, Discovery Channel, BBC, and numerous television networks. A research project is at the heart of the Summer Student Fellowship program.
Members of groups underrepresented in ocean science and engineering are encouraged to apply. More information can be obtained by contacting education whoi. More information » Program Overview » Admissions. Applications are accepted each year starting in late November through February 5.
Thank you! I feel like I learned so much, and it really broadened my horizons. I owe all my summer knowledge to them. They have inspired me to pursue the field of oceanography.
