Marine scientists are required to have at least a bachelor's degree in marine biology, marine science or a closely-related field. After completing core requirements in biology, chemistry and physics, students delve into specialized topics such as aquatic animal biology, oceanography and toxicology.
Marine biologists study organisms that live in an ocean or sea environment. Much of their time is spent in the field collecting data about plant and animal species. This data is then analyzed in a lab or an office to advance the understanding of species and their environments. There are many areas of specialization in marine biology, ranging from animal behavior to marine biotechnology. Some marine biologists focus on a particular species or geographic region. Whatever their specialty, marine biologists must have knowledge in biology, chemistry, physics, geology, and ecology.
