StudyingMarine Science at Deakin University

Students studying marine science at Deakin have access to spectacular marine environments teeming with rich biodiversity. Delivered at the Waurn Ponds and Warrnambool campuses, where the facilities are located at the doorstep of the Great Southern Reef, students become experts in ocean systems by exploring a broad range of disciplines, including marine biology and ecology, oceanography, marine mapping, conservation, aquaculture, fisheries, marine and coastal management.  

Importantly, the Bachelor of Marine Science equips students with the skills needed to create a sustainable future for the world’s oceans.  There are many jobs marine science graduates can access:

The Marine Science course offers two marine science majors: 

• Ocean, Fisheries and Aquaculture Sciences at the Geelong Waurn Ponds Campus
• Sustainable Marine Management at the Warrnambool Campus

Note: Students may be required to undertake cross campus study between the Waurn Ponds and Warrnambool campuses for some units depending on the Major or electives selected.
