What is Oceanography and Oceanic Sciences? Oceanography and Oceanic Sciences deal with the chemistry, physics, geology, and biology of the world’s oceans at all levels. It is an interdisciplinary science that includes studies of the chemistry of seawater, tides and currents, the sediments and underlying crustal structures of the ocean floor, and marine flora and fauna.

What do Oceanography and Oceanic Sciences students learn? Like other scientists, oceanographers collect and interpret data, design experiments and equipment, and advance theories in an attempt to predict patterns and solve problems. Students also learn to work with the technology—including sonar, autonomous undersea vehicles (AUVs), and computer programs—involved in the study of the Earth’s oceans. They may choose to specialize in geological, physical, chemical or Atmospheric science programs may be combined with a variety of other programs such as chemistry, physics, computer science, and geology to enhance postgraduate studies or marketability in the workplace.

Prerequisites Needed to Study Oceanography and Oceanic Sciences in Canada Admission requirements usually similar to those of a general B.Sc. program; recommended that students have a strong background in math and science courses. Calculus and/or other advanced math courses should be taken at the high school level. (Much of the work of professional oceanographers is pursued aboard ship or in laboratories. Beyond academia, there are also widening opportunities in industry, commerce and research for skilled environmental scientists such as oceanographers. Depending on a student’s specialization, oceanography graduates may pursue careers in a wide range of fields, or use their studies as a foundation for careers in economics, politics, education, public policy and law. )
