Life as a "Marine Biology Major" at Florida State University // Marine Biology Major Colleges

[@KaimanaConservation]

Its so fun to hear about the academic experiences of other professional marine biologists. Each university and region offers such a diverse array of courses, research opportunities and volunteer experiences that are SO vital to your career. Great to see how FSU programs run!

omg I am currently a marine bio major at FSU and i feel so alone and lost.. thank u for this video

[@oceanscholar]

I'm glad you found it helpful! Let me know if you have any other questions

[@kaylahdeluna3890]

What classes are you taking there? I’m actually thinking about going to FSU in marine biology and was curious to what classes you take, would be a lot of help :)

[@Kabir9861]

Very insightful video that anyone interested in marine biology should watch, well done.

[@oceanscholar]

Thank you so much! It’s truly a privilege to give back this kind of information with the bit of free time I have at the moment!

[@shifty1856]

thank you for making your videos, i really appreciate them

[@remiventura8374]

you're amazing. this is exactly what i needed thank you

[@thaislima-th2se]

do u ever thought about oceanography? what’s the main differences between them? i would be happy to know :)

[@oceanscholar]

Oceanography is more focused on the waves, chemicals, and landscape of the ocean! Marine biology is more focused on marine life and how it behaves, although biological oceanography can include this too! I like marine biology, because I personally find the living aspects more interesting than the non-living :).

[@kaylahdeluna3890]

What classes would you take as an undergrad and a grad? I actually applied to FSU and am unsure if that is the school for me, it would be a lot of help if I knew what classes to take! :)

[@chandlerwright1966]

Great video Eli! I've seen you around the King Building. Have you decided on a grad school??

[@oceanscholar]

At this point I actually don't think I want to go to grad school any more 👀 but that's so cool you ended up finding these videos from FSU!!

[@perseuslove1335]

Starting Marine Sciences at Santa Fe 👍🏻

[@tayloreubanks4752]

So, even with no marine biology program, you can specialize in marine biology? I'm confused😂

[@oceanscholar]

Yes! Some related majors give you the opportunity to specialize within their program. For me, I was a biology major and was able to take lots of marine-related courses. I also had lots of opportunity to participate in marine research at my school.

[@larsoss9167]

What are some courses you'd recommend to take for marine biology?
