Overview
The Marine Biology and Ecology program at Università degli Studi della Tuscia will lead the Master’s Degree student to an in-depth knowledge of the specific ecological processes of the marine and coastal environment, thus being able to contribute both to their conservation and to the sustainable management of the goods and services they produce.
The Master’s Degree will cover a number of topics related to the functioning of marine and coastal environments, to marine biodiversity and research, and to the characterization of new resources for the development of innovative biotechnological products and processes.
The Marine Environmental Biologist is provided with a thorough knowledge of the marine environment, aimed at identifying and effectively solving environmental issues through an interdisciplinary approach.
To this purpose, the Marine Environmental Biologist will also have to master critical and synthesis skills, which will be acquired through continuous interactions with the world of both basic and applied research. This will allow making the best use of the skills acquired in the areas of management, conservation, and sustainable exploitation of marine resources.
