About MARINE (Monterey Area Research Institutions' Network for Education)
The Center for Ocean Solutions is collaborating with seven Monterey Bay area academic campuses—CSU Monterey Bay, Hopkins Marine Station, Monterey Institute of International Studies, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, Naval Postgraduate School, Stanford University, and UC Santa Cruz—to enhance graduate marine education. The inter-institutional activities create opportunities for students to apply their training to ocean challenges and engage in real world problem-solving and policy recommendations. We aim to:
Equip Monterey Bay area graduate and post-graduate students with skills to be ocean leaders and communicators by:
- training students to contribute to environmental decision-making and shaping the students' leadership and communications skills early on in their careers;
- exposing students to professional development and networking opportunities; and
- nurturing the growth of MARINE as a networked community of students and faculty who focus on marine-related science and policy.
