I've always wanted to be a marine biologist... how can I incorporate engineering into that? |
I've always wanted to be a marine biologist, but I have the smarts to up that job to a high paying level. I'm considering going to college in Hawaii to be closer to the ocean and in the heartland of marine life (I couldn't move to California, way too crowded and bleh). I don't know of any specific jobs that combine engineering and marine biology!!! Any help? Try bioengineering. I dont know if there is a specific field of bioeng. with Marine biology, but I do know there are alot to do with tissue engineering. Our aqua culture program at U.H. was moving along very well on an educational level.A commercial and agricultural program was in place from about 1980 to1989.Oddly enough though when a research project proved viable and made a profit it was discontinued.There are private investors now,but they become limited by the local market.Invasive viruses and algae bloom were also a contributing factor in aquaculture development.If you could focus improvements toward oxygenation systems,water delivery systems.and invasive species protection in grow out you will have an industry opening.There is a large marine biology program here and you can expect a substantial education benefit.We need some very real help in genetic over site as well as insemination practices.Please join us. Kahuku Realist Marine engineers, captains and mates make a decent wage for as little as 6 months a year. I am not sure that Hawaii has any programs for mariners but there are several around the mainland. Good luck Get your undergrad degree in engineering or physics, then talk to any of a number of companies building oceanographic instrumentation.If you are a real hotshot as an undergrad and you feel you could tolerate southern Cal for a couple of years in order to work with the best in the world, apply to be a graduate student in Applied Ocean Sciences program at SIO. Huge opportunities in developing instrumentation for cutting-edge marine bio research. http://www.siograddept.ucsd.edu/admissio... From a mechnical engineering perspective, there is opportunity to work for a company that designs underwater submersibles for the observation or collection of undersea life. Or other marine equipment. For example: Watershot Inc - underwater cameras Oceaneering International - offshore equipment SeaBotix Inc - remote operated vehicles |
