Additional Information
| Description | The field of marine science relates to living and non-living resources and physical aspects of the ocean. As a maritime nation, Malaysia emphasises on education and research in marine science. UKM is among the earliest institution that offers marine science study at the undergraduate level. Initially, the programme and research on marine science in UKM only focused on ecology aspects, diversity and marine resources. Now, the programme and research in marine science in UKM have developed and covered almost the entire sub-fields of marine science. Faculty members involved in teaching and research are also experts in biology, ecology and taxonomy of marine invertebrates, biology and ecology of coral reef, physiology, bacterioplankton ecology and diversity, phytoplankton and sea weed, marine biotechnology, marine chemistry, marine geology, marine remote sensing and GIS, physical oceanography as well as marine meteorology and ocean climate. Students will get the opportunity to learn and understand the wide scope and multiple aspects of oceanography such as biological oceanography, physical oceanography, chemical oceanography, geological oceanography and atmospheric oceanography. Students will get to work closely with the faculty members who supervise independent research, participate in lab-based and field research at various sites such as ocean scientific cruise, coral reef and sea-grass monitoring, and participate in research and consultation projects ranging from quantifying biodiversity in sediments and water column to the modelling. |
