INTEGRATED COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT (MARA 5009 / ENVI 5204 / LAWS 2041)
This course focuses on understanding the process associated with the implementation of Integrated Coastal Zone Management and lessons learned from a comparative assessment of selected efforts to date. Using case studies and examples from developed and developing countries, students will gain insights into the requirements necessary to plan and implement integrated coastal zone management programs at the local, sub-national, national and regional levels. The course is offered by the Marine Affairs Program and is cross-listed with the Law School and SRES. The approach is accordingly comparative and interdisciplinary.
MARINE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY (MARA 5003)
This course provides a survey of marine science and technology (basic marine-basin geography and geology, physical, chemical and biological oceanography). Various fields and topics are addressed from a scientific research and technology application perspective. Where possible, and relevant, the application of the scientific findings to issues of management, resource exploitation and policy formation are addressed. Course content and assignments should help marine managers use science and technology to: 1) recognize /formulate problems; 2) identify relevant information necessary to address problems; 3) find relevant and reliable information/assistance; 4) reliably interpret the information to make objective management decisions.
MARINE MANAGEMENT I (OCEA 4401)
This course exposes students with a marine science background to the increasing need for marine scientists and ocean managers and policy makers to work collaboratively to address the interdisciplinary nature of the problems confronting the world's oceans. This course is restricted to 4th year students with a marine science background.
MARINE MANAGEMENT II (OCEA 4402)
Students focus on the linkages between ocean governance and ocean science to understand the role of marine science in informing and influencing decisions affecting coastal and marine space and resources at multiple geographic and jurisdictional scales. This course is restricted to 4th year students with a marine science background.
