Oceanography is the science of the ocean, from ocean biology and ecosystems to seafloor volcanoes, currents and waves to El Nino and climate. Several CSU campuses offer undergraduate degrees in Oceanography or Marine science, such as CSUMB, Cal Poly and Humboldt State, as do several UC campuses such as UCLA and UCSD. A degree in these disciplines will enable the graduate to have a career in a wide variety of fields such as research, academia, engineering/consulting, and policy. See a counselor or the Department Chair for more specific information.
