海洋科学-硕士和博士学位
什么是海洋科学，为什么它很重要?
人类与海洋有着亲密的关系. 它提供我们呼吸的空气， influences weather, regulates global climate, and provides vital resources that affects 我们生活的方方面面. 世界上大约40%的人口居住在60英里以内 (100 km) of the coast, making them particularly vulnerable to changes in sea level, coastal degradation, flooding, and the damaging effects of hurricanes. 海洋经济 contributes more than 300 billion dollars annually and over 3 millions jobs to the 美国经济. 的 海洋 environment is therefore vital to our planet and our well-being. 海洋科学家在USM研究范围广泛 研究的主题 aimed at understanding ocean processes so that we may better understand the current and future role of the ocean in Earth systems, and better preserve and protect our 海洋资源.
我会学到什么??
- A working understanding of the four major fields of 海洋 科学: physical oceanography, geological oceanography, biological oceanography, and 海洋 chemistry
- A 'cross-discipline' appreciation of ocean processes and how they regulate global 气候、海洋生态系统和维持全球渔业
- A broad range of practical, analytical, and laboratory skills, including field work 在海上，数据分析和最先进的仪器
- 如何有效地向广大受众传播科学
的 foundation provided by our 程序 has consistently assisted our students in continuing their career paths in research, teaching and other sectors around the country both at a University level as well as within federal agencies such as the Navy, NOAA, EPA, 和美国地质调查局.
Admission is competitive and is based on several criteria, including GPA, course background, GRE scores, three letters of recommendation, resume/CV, and a statement of purpose.
的 Marine Science 程序s also require each student to have a faculty sponsor, who 担任学术和研究顾问. 我们强烈鼓励学生去识别 一位教师的赞助者 海洋科学学院 在申请入学之前，虽然这不是强制性的.
All students admitted into the 程序 will be considered for assistantship, either 通过研究、教学或联谊. 然而，由于资源有限，助学金 会有竞争力吗.
该计划的录取是通过 南加州大学研究生院. 申请必须由 3月1日 作为秋季入学的充分考虑. 春季入学申请截止日期 is 9月1日. 的se deadlines are earlier than the general deadlines set by the 研究生院.
的 Marine Science 程序 generally accepts applicants for regular 入学 with 以下GPA:
M.S. 项目- GPA不低于3分.所有本科课程都是0分
Ph.D. 项目- GPA不低于3分.5分所有研究生课程(如果进入
硕士学位)，或平均绩点不低于3.所有本科课程5分(如果入学)
具有学士学位)
Applicants with a GPA below the standards above have potential to receive conditional
入学. Students granted conditional 入学 are generally not eligible for assistantship
在入学时提供支持.
海洋科学研究生奖学金
的 Division of Marine Science offers a graduate fellowship 每年 for a prospective 攻读海洋科学博士或硕士学位的学生. 奖学金包括学费。 并在获奖者项目的第一年提供有竞争力的津贴. 所有的常规 申请人将被考虑申请该奖学金. 有竞争力的奖学金候选人 will have a strong academic background and prior research experience is preferred, 但不是必需的. 鼓励合格的候选人联系潜在的教员 advisors to discuss their research and education interests prior to applying to the 程序. This fellowship is offered for Fall entry to the 程序 and the deadline 要考虑的是 2月1日 每年.
学生海洋学会(SOS)
学生海洋学学会(SOS)在约翰C. 斯坦尼斯航天中心 in 1992 by a group of 海洋 科学 graduate students from 的 University of Southern 密西西比海洋科学分部. 该组织的成立是为了提供学术和 networking assistance to 海洋 科学 graduate students and to offer a means for the student body to voice any concerns they may have directly to the faculty. 会员 is open to all part-time and full-time students enrolled in the department of 海洋 科学. SOS offers assistance with: an SOS Scholarship, social networking, help with homework, rides to and from 斯坦尼斯, housing accommodation upon arrival, and proofreaders 论文和演讲. SOS鼓励社区和部门参与 基于社会和外展活动. SOS旨在促进沟通和协作 between students and scientists across locations, including 斯坦尼斯, USM Gulf Park, USM GCRL和USM九游国际棋牌的位置. 活动包括各种教育 outreach activities, student social hours, a spring crawfish boil, etc.. 看到我们的 脸谱网页面.
